About my works

I work on many projects at the same time. Exhibition and screening projects create a framework to show art. I’m at the same time working with my personal art. I work and switch between many media. Traditional forms of Fine Art combine daily with new media. I start with the subject and an inner process and find the proper media to implement it.

Screening Helsinki

One active exhibition project is Screening Helsinki. There are 15 photographers involved in this exhibition. It is a traditional slide show converted into a digital form. Photographs are projected outdoors from inside a car. We use building walls as projection surfaces. The exhibition has been to Helsinki and Tampere. In 2012 we will drive it to Tartu, Estonia. A special show is arranged on 18th of November 2011 in the Helsinki Asematunneli. There the photographs are projected from inside into windows of a former kiosk. The home for this project is at screeninghelsinki.com.

We made a documentary video on our trip to Tampere 1st of April 2011. You can watch it here below.
