A Helsinki based dance artist who works as a performance maker and a performer.‍ ‍

I’ve worked both in companies and as a free-lancer, internationally (2000—2012) and in Finland (2009—present).

I’m also a founding member of the artist association rendezvous.

As a performance maker I direct collective processes and create works for theaters, galleries and alternative art spaces (Teatteri Takomo, Teater Viirus, Zodiak Center for New Dance, SIC, Titanik, Ehkä, Teater Universum, Mad House Helsinki, Drifts).

At the moment, my artistic practice is rooted in the intersection of staging intimate encounters and rethinking classicism by enhancing the presence of affect and emotion in physical contact. I’m interested in how motives driven by power, tenderness and desire shape dance and corporeality.
