Tuomas A. Laitinen (b. 1976, Riihimäki. Lives and works in Helsinki) works with moving image, sound, light, glass, chemical and microbial processes, as well as computer generated simulations to explore the entanglements of human and more-than-human coexistence. Laitinen composes situations and installations that inquire into the porous interconnectedness of language, body, and matter within morphing ecosystems. In recent years, Laitinen has been working around questions of ecology, the notion of the extended mind, and processes of knowledge production. The works are often made with transparent and translucent materials in order to find ways to layer different epistemological systems and narratives.
You can discover Tuomas A. Laitinen's works 'Blend 01 (Chromatophores)' (2020), 'Protean Sap' (2020) and 'Haemocyanin' (2019) at the fair.
