Currently, in the spring 2022 I'm working as a work community artist in Turku University of Applied Sciences.
So pleased to have been chosen as the summer artist in Seinäjoki in 2021. I will be filming video portraits of people and the work will be archived until 2100. The process can be followed on Instagram @kesakuvataiteilija.

Hierarchy of Care (The Committee) work in progress 2018-
Ethical committees weigh the pain and suffering caused to animals
against the scientific research's potential societal significance.
Application - An official request for something, usually in writing
Humane - Showing kindness, care, and sympathy towards others, especially those who are suffering
Committee - A body of persons delegated to consider, investigate, take action on, or report on some matter
Protocol - The system of rules and acceptable behavior used at official ceremonies and occasions
against the scientific research's potential societal significance.
