About
Mikki Nordman is an active internationally exhibiting Finnish born Visual Artist based in London and Stockholm. She has a BA Fine Arts degree from Central Saint Martins, focusing on digital and time-based media and a BA Design degree from Istituto Marangoni.
The artistic practice is a form of digital Arte Povera, where the mundane surroundings become the studio and medium for the Art. This often includes garbage, found objects, archives, public data, institutions and Public spaces. The practice focuses on exploring and researching the interactions
between materiality and technology, with the aim of using emerging technology unconventionally to create Artworks that does not adhere to traditional image production.
The multimedia installations seek to question perception and
the relation between the self and the other, human and technology in the context of the post-human anthroposcene.
The Artist is currently focusing on producing art machines generated by public data. Mikki had her first solo exhibition in 2021 at Turku Kunsthalle and she is a member of the London based WMC Collective.
