I'm a multidisciplinary artist and fermentation wizardess with an academic background in art and science. Through food, film, sound, and words, my work transforms marginalized topics into stories and experiences that create a radical shift in perspective.
I’m also the creator of Ferment Radio, a platform that explores bacterial and social fermentation; co-founder at Super Eclectic, a Helsinki-based creative studio for the world we want; member of The Centre for the Social Study of Microbes at the University of Helsinki, and PhD candidate in the RAT-research group at Aalto University.

    The Research Through Art & Design (RAD) course for doctoral researchers at Aalto Arts introduces a variety of approaches, methodologies, issues, and concerns in research through practice. In this course, research through practice refers to a broad continuum of artistic research approaches, arts-based, practice-led, and practice-based research approaches, including constructive design research approaches relevant across practices in Aalto University; School of Arts, Design and Architecture. This exposition was created within a Research Catalogue Workshop offered as an additional part of the main course. During this part of the course, the participants are familiarised with the Research Catalogue as a platform and learn how to use it for creating expositions. During the workshop, participants work on their page within this group exposition, based on their current doctoral research or a topic that inspired them during the lectures. The main content is the workshop participants' individual pages within this exposition.
