Raana Lehtinen (b. 1990) is a visual artist who lives and works in Helsinki. She is studying for a master’s degree at the University of the Arts Helsinki’s Academy of Fine Arts, and she has previously completed a degree at the Free Art School.

Lehtinen usually paints in oils and watercolours, and her works are mostly figurative, with human figures in different environments. Lehtinen is interested in how we connect with our surroundings and explores this topic in her works. Observing things around her and developing a more open relationship with nature is an important part of her practice as an artist. Lehtinen’s paintings also deal with themes like symbolism, time, remembering and forgetting, and they often compound of materials from many different sources. She paints her friends and relatives and sometimes makes self-portraits.

Lehtinen has participated in several group exhibitions in Finland and internationally and has held some solo exhibitions in recent years. Her works can be found in the collections of the Finnish National Gallery and Tampere Art Museum as well as some private collections. Lehtinen is a member of the PuunSyli art collective.
