ABOUT THE ARTIST AND HER WORK

I am interested in the exchange and interaction of visual and media arts with other art forms, specially with dance, in an intuitive manner. I work in hybrid projects that viscerally explore the unity between content, medium, context and narrative display. I am both fascinated and disturbed by humans. Mesmerized and puzzled by moving images, moving bodies and moving artifacts. Inspired to wonder about where there can be a stage and what can be staged. Often the themes of my work revolve around notions of reality, perception and behavior. During the working process and along its outcomes I try to figure out how we perceive reality and how we act upon that. I'm interested in one's emotional being and in the conversion of one's inner into representational forms. While I speculate on constructing dramaturgical entities, I refer to individual and communal conducts as well as their contexts. I like to work; a bit like those donkeys following a carrot. Based in Helsinki over the last eight years, I have been directing dance projects and exhibit my work in a gallery context. Further I have worked in several theatre and dance productions as a video artist and performed as a dancer for other choreographers.
