Gaia Tokay is a Norwegian citizen and lives in Oslo. She has a multicultural background and is a very colorful person. She has always been creative and had a great sense of visual arts since early youth. She educated as hairdresser and ran her own salon for many years. But she never put art on the shelf and Gaia focused herself to visual art full time since year 2000 and started at Nydalen art school in Oslo where she studied for three years. Gaia has performed several exhibitions in Norway and Italy and she also ran her own gallery for several years.
Gaia has a great fondness for old things that brings life in her artwork. On a walk in the woods, she can pick up a piece of rusty iron that most people see no value in. She sews it into the artwork, giving incredibly exciting impressions and stories. Collage is also one of her great passions and create interesting compositions with use of different materials embedded into the artwork.
