I am a graphic designer and text artist, and Associate Professor in Visual Communication Design. I am the founder and director of Centre for Text Margins – Tekstien marginaalien keskus at Aalto ARTS. I’m also co-founder of the experimental publishing collective Multipöly.

My work spans across typography, design, and experimental writing, and across both poetry and academia. I am always curious about unseen currents within contemporary visual communication, and I want to seek modes of diffractive and sustainable academic practice beyond commercial interest.

I'm into language and typography, publication as art/design practice, and redefining communication design in the context of new materiality. All of these areas are visible in my artistic doctoral research Epä/igenesis (2021) featuring the bookwork Epägenesis: Katalogi X (2020), a catalogue of material and conceptual writing. I am co-editor of the volume The Experimental Book Object: Materiality, Media, Design (Routledge, 2023).
