Visual identity & Space design for a children's para-learning studio

Hullabaloo Children's Studio in Mumbai, offers classes in arts, music, storytelling, STEM, among others. Their classes are curated to engage and inspire children to imagine and create newness. For the visual identity, the main challenge was to create a brand language that seamlessly transitions between communications and interiors, between image and space.

Annual report for a community centre for performance art and research

I was commissioned to design the annual report / Vuosikertomus for the Reality Research Center, which describes itself as "... a collective of artists engaged in performative adventures. Our shared aspiration is to observe, question, and renew reality by creating performances." The report employs visually rich metaphors, with abstract and fluid layouts that reflect the spirit of TTK's performance initiatives.

Rehearsing Hospitalities

2021-23
Helsinki

Communication design, strategy and event production for a contemporary art public programme

Frame’s public programme Rehearsing Hospitalities has sought to ‘connect artists, curators and other practitioners in the field of contemporary art and beyond to mediate new practices and understandings with diverse hospitalities’. From 2019 to 2023, the programme has included commissions, exhibitions, discussions and bi-annual gatherings. The communication materials for the programme are tied together by the visual identity, designed by Elina Holey in 2019, which I expanded upon to create a range of diverse communication materials backed with a comprehensive communication strategy. To balance dynamism and change with familiarity and recognizability, certain aspects of the original Rehearsing Hospitalities identity were transfigured, while other elements were unchanged.

UrbanApa X Ateneum: In the Deep / On the Surface

2023
Helsinki

Visual Identity & publication for a Contemporary Performance Festival

A dynamic visual identity centered around a texture in motion. An experimental video-based poster & event communications. The thematic landscape of the festival was in the deep / on the surface. The curators ask: What kinds of things are present and in motion? Already identifiable? What kinds of things are just taking shape? What is surfacing in different contexts? Or what kinds of things are under the surface or in the depths? How can working and doing be many things at once – deep, pleasurable, light, subversive? Playful, feminist and communal? Or utopian?

Curated by Emmi Venna and Sonya Lindfors.

It's time for Visual arts: Campaign lobbying against proposed budget cuts in the Finnish arts sector

The joint parliamentary election program of Frame, the Society of Finnish Artists and Kuvasto aims to increase the funding of visual arts by 15 million euros, to a total of 30 million euros. This would bring the visual arts closer to an equal status with other art fields, while strengthening the creative fields as a whole.

UA mini residencies

2022
Helsinki

Visual identity & communication design for short artists’ residencies in Finland.

The visual identity is rooted in the idea of smallness, nurture, care and growth. The main idea is simple: tiny houseplants growing out of tiny cups that act almost like a mini-residency–a small place for nurture and growth. The houseplants are blooming and thriving in their tiny cups, alluding to the resident artists in the mini-residencies.

Colour strategy for hospital signage & wayfinding system

The signage system was based on colour zones. During the research phase, the entire space was mapped and zoned according to function (from a patient's point of view), following which colours characteristics were connected with zone functions to create a signage system. The work also included structural, surface and typography design for the signage system.
