Year Results posts are now uncool, but I like the New Year for the opportuity to look back and dream on. 2025 was full of ups and downs for me (and one major Flat Line).
And I am more and more realising the power of community (with the danger of sounding like an Oscar speechā¦). The power of people who get me thru the best and the worst. First of all, my girl Pipsa who has grown to be the coolest companion (unless she is Not In A Mood).
And all MY GIRLS who make the life worth living.
I saw my dad in 2025, which is a sad achievement of our times.
And I managed go stay (happily) married (not so obvs but indeed a win)!
I was running a book club for the whole year, which has been a magic community of its own.
So rich because I built this for myself (patting the shoulder)š«
Iād love to work with film festivals ā itās the perfect mix of visual storytelling, identity work, and my past experience in event marketing.
Currently manifesting @helsinkifilmfestival and @nightvisionsfestival , because their vibes match mine⦠or at least I think so.š
Any other festivals out there with the same energy? āØš¬

Made my first AI portrait today. Needed the new headshot for the website, the old one did not seem to convey the right vibe anymore. I am, of course, always the artsy pink-haired cutie. But Iām also a professional with over 10 years of experience. I think deeply and I work hard.āØāØIāve been questioning a lot about my professional identity lately. Itās easy to feel like the industry is full of dead ends ā a sinking economy, AI reshaping everything, an oversaturated market.
But there is a kind of freedom in it: when the old paths donāt work, you get to make your own. And how I see my role started to shift.
Iām no longer just the person who executes; Iām the person who guides.
I can learn AI and its ethics. I can learn UI. I can learn whatever new tools arrive next. The point isnāt mastering every skill ā itās knowing which approach, which medium, which tool actually serves the problem.
Thatās where the work is for me now: not just making things, but helping people navigate what to make and why. ššš

my work for @suomenluonto ā 4 āfunny experimentsā that arenāt actually funny at all once you get into the science.āØBirds telling shapes apart, students walking toward bears, a stuffed fox on wheels, and bumblebees learning colours āāØsometimes nature research sounds absurd ā until it suddenly makes perfect sense. šæ

If I canāt show up in all my glory, I wonāt show up
If I canāt be the shiny friend with the advice and a helping hand, I wonāt reach out
and this creates the vicious feedback loop
the less I show up the less I see myself the less I want to be seen
so here is to showing up unprepared and with bad hair
with unfinished projects and rejected applications
with no news
because for me
in my artistic practice
succes is consistency
so here is a fantasy coloring book that may or may not come to life at some point š
