Henna Asikainen born in Joensuu, FInland, uses a variety of mediums and methods to explore our relationship with the environment.

Asikainen’s work greatly features the concept of nature and the natural and in particular the impact of destructive human activities on both the ecosystem and the other beings we share it with. Her work questions our complex relationship with nature and its intersections with social justice, climate justice, migration and notions of belonging.

Asikainen has exhibited ‘Omens’ at BALTIC39 (2020). ‘Delicate Shuttle’ was a large-scale installation at the Newcastle Central Library as part of the Great Exhibition of the North (2018).
