Elena Ringo

Elena Ringo is a visual artist whose work spans painting, illustration, and interdisciplinary art. Born in Moscow into an intellectually distinguished family, she demonstrated exceptional artistic talent from an early age. At the age of ten she entered the Surikov Art School for exceptionally gifted children, located opposite the Tretyakov Gallery, where she received a rigorous classical foundation in drawing and painting. She later continued her studies at the Academy of Art and Architecture in Moscow, forming a solid academic base that would inform her mature artistic language.

Since the mid-1990s, Elena Ringo’s artistic career has been closely connected with Helsinki, where she lived and worked for many years. During this period she held solo exhibitions, participated in numerous group shows, illustrated books, and painted commissioned portraits. Her work was presented at venues such as Taidelainaamo, the exhibition “I Love Helsinki” in Suomenlinna, “Signs of Time”, “Helmikuun Helmet”, as well as in more than twenty exhibitions in Finland and abroad. Her solo exhibitions included shows at the Center of Russian Science and Culture, Pohjola Insurance Company, Gallery Silver Brush, and the Radisson SAS Plaza Hotel Helsinki.
