I am a Finnish-based artist originally from Germany, currently living at the residency Villa Snäcksund in Tammisaari, Finland. I studied at the Finnish Academy of Fine Arts, Helsinki, Gerrit Rietveld Academie, Amsterdam (BFA) and subsequently received a MFA from the Dutch Art Institute, Arnhem in 2020.
In my work I use primarily installations, sculpture, digital imagery and video to analyse visual metaphors that shape the world I share. My main interest is to expand metaphors and cultural images, crack them open, to make them more generous and diverse.
My recent artistic practice (2019- ) focuses on the relations between organisms and constructed environments. More specifically, how perceived knowledge of organic structures is often used as a blueprint for ideas, institutions, and technologies.
