About me
My work revolves around sound and the joy of creating it. I see sound, echo, and reverb not just as practical materials but as conceptual tools that shape my thinking and art. I’m drawn to processes — both internal and external — that redefine how we experience aesthetics, ethics, philosophy, and society.
I studied sound art at the Finnish Academy of Fine Arts and have been studying the philosophy of religion at the University of Helsinki since 2020. I also work as a spatial experience specialist at Haaga-Helia University of Applied Sciences.
I create music as Kumea Sound and release it through my own handpan music label, Future Rust.
