Composed Shapes,
Carved Sounds

2023
Identity design for the joint exhibition of ceramicist and sculptor Elena Palomo and sound artist Lasse Pietiläinen.

The identity concept of the exhibition was based on the themes of connection and duality.  I collaborated with photographer Juho Huttunen to create a set of images that would allow us to visually merge Elena's sculptures with Lasse's source of inspiration – shapes and textures found in nature.

Fragments
2021
Fragments is a series of six booklets. The first three – Collected Words – consist of a collection of text fragments that explore topics related to artistic research, publishing and curating. The other three booklets document three exhibitions I curated in my home, changing the context of the living room to that of the White Cube, the Wunderkammer and the Studio.

Alltogether, Fragments fuses ideas, topics and knowledge gained from the readings with my personal archive of collected images and objects. The publication makes visible the exercise of arranging and re-arranging thoughts and material on paper and in space.

Edition of 20, Printed on Risograph

Frameworks
2023
MA Visual Communication Design – Thesis Project. Frameworks is both an installation and an exhibition. The cube-structure, placed in the lobby of Aalto University, explored ways of showcasing graphic design work, process, and practice outside the conventional portfolio setting.

During its two week run the inside of the cube changed from White Cube setting to informal reading room – presenting my personal design work in different ways. The outside, left intentionally raw, showcased the process and inspiration for each project and the exhibition itself.
