HYBRID ARTIST &

DIGITAL DESIGNER

Photo Markus Tamminen

I am Anu Lehto, an art director, visual artist and designer from Helsinki.

I work with storytelling, installations, and conceptual art, as well as in service design projects that combine art, technology, and spatiality. I am interested in urban space and explore the relationship between art and spatiality through my artistic practice.

In the future, I would like to work on projects that design better urban spaces for both people and animals, projects where the importance of urban greenery is emphasized. Community-driven and participatory processes in the design and creation of public spaces are the foundation of my work. I also want to emphasize the significance of empathy.

In service design projects I have primarily focused on designing digital cultural services. My goal is always to design aesthetically high-quality, accessible, and easy-to-use services.

”It has always been present in my work; the desire to find a perspective for the viewer and to capture a moment for the experiencer. To create conditions for emotion. To resonate. To touch lightly. To lead deeper. To lift higher. To show what is beyond the surface. To create experiences where one can travel in the mind, linger, and take something along. It has always been there. The desire to build an emotional state. The desire to strive for aesthetics."
