I'm a visual artist working with lens-based processes. I'm interested in embodied memory, forgotten stories, and erasure. I completed an MA in Illustration at the Royal College of Art, London (2019), and a BA in Photography at the University of the Arts London (2010).
Exhibitions
My work has been exhibited internationally, including at Summerhall, Edinburgh (The Annual Summer Show, 2025), Tallinn Museum of Photography (Estonian and Finnish Analogue Photography Today, 2022), and Tate Britain Archive, London (ARCHIVE(R), 2018). Earlier exhibitions include Brighton Photo Biennial and galleries across London. In 2016, I held a solo exhibition titled as Saaret, at Galleria Pihatto in Lappeenranta, Finland.
Research, grants and projects
I work with museum archives, forgotten materials, and abandoned buildings as sites where memory is felt but not remembered. My research has been supported by the Finnish Cultural Foundation / South Karelian Fund (2018). As part of this work, I photographed abandoned buildings in South Karelia, exploring absence and memory. In 2018, I developed The Archive(r), a research-led project in collaboration with the Tate Archive and the Royal College of Art, working with photographs of unidentified individuals held in museum collections.
