Informazioni generali
Chi sono
CURRENT MISSION
Back in Helsinki with a new job, after living in Madrid for a while.
ABOUT ME
Somewhat of a dreamer, artistically and idealistically inclined. Peaceful and international for all means and purposes.
More specifically, I currently work as the Managing Director of a contemporary dance company. I also have a long history of working with contemporary art and music, organizing exhibitions, events and stuff. In my free time I sometimes write lyrics and occasionally even rap and sing them in public. I play some football, footbag and basketball too.
( Feel free to ask questions.. )
PHILOSOPHY
Still in the process of figuring it out.. Generally speaking, I strive to be a positive force, change things for the better and make people happy.

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto
I was born and developed consciousness.
I have also co-founded a gallery-bar called La Serilla in Barcelona, which was a cool and crazy place, until it came to an end... Also founded and ran a place called XL Art Space in Helsinki, 2011–2015, which was kind of amazing too.
Insegna, impara, condividi
I know something about art and culture and have views about international politics and the contemporary human condition, among other things.. Done a bit of research on Peak Oil, resource depletion and sustainability issues as well.. More in person, perhaps..
