  • CV for Mari Keski-Korsu 1.2.2016 Mari Keski-Korsu (Mkk) Is an Transdisciplinary Artist
    CV for Mari Keski-Korsu 1.2.2016 Mari Keski-Korsu (mkk) is an transdisciplinary artist. She explores how ecological and socio-economical changes manifest in people’s everyday life. How macrocosm becomes microcosm and visa versa? Her works have a political nature with a humorous twist. Usually, t he starting point of the work is in location, a place and people’s relations to it and collaborations with different kinds of communities, individuals and species. Keski-Korsu’s practice is for example interventions, documentary, performance, virtual worlds, photography, live visualisations and installations as well as mixtures of all these media. She is interested in relations in between art, activism, politics and science. The works has been exhibited in Europe and in several other countries around the world. She collaborates with artist groups, researchers as well as organises and curates different types of projects. She holds a MA from University of Arts and Design Helsinki (Medialab) and BA in visual arts from Polytechnic of Western Lapland.

  • “Finland Is Dead, Dead, Dead” Kristian Smeds’S the Unknown Soldier Ethics Andnational Identity in Hana Worthen
    “Finland Is Dead, Dead, Dead” Ethics and National Identity in Kristian Smeds’s The Unknown Soldier Hana Worthen Hana Worthen 34 Downloaded from http://www.mitpressjournals.org/doi/pdf/10.1162/DRAM_a_00166 by guest on 28 September 2021 [T]he human is but a point of view, a nontranscendent entity beguiled by the transcendent promises that inhere in narrative. — Paul Sheehan (2002:48) Tuntematon sotilas (The Unknown Soldier) directed by Kristian Smeds opened at the Finnish National Theatre in Helsinki in November 2007 and remained in the repertoire for about two years.1 Restaging Finland’s World War II struggle against the Soviet Union (1941–44) from the perspective of ordinary soldiers, Smeds’s production challenges the fashioning of national iden- tity sustained by Finland’s best-known modern epics, Väinö Linna’s 1954 novel of the same name and Edvin Laine’s 1955 film adaptation.2 An enormously successful, vivid, and iconoclastic theatre work, the stage performance generated impassioned discussions in the press, on televi- sion, on the internet, and in the Finnish Parliament, dramatizing a tension between the patri- otic narrative of war and independence within national memory and the contemporary pressure in Finland to adapt to membership in the world community. For those who hold to a “uni- form national narrative” and vigorously opposed the production, Smeds’s Unknown Soldier epit- omized “brouhaha art,” “hate culture,” interchangeably Stalinism/communism/socialism, the “misinterpretation of history,” and “a slap in the face of patriotic Finland.” For those who sup- ported it, the production opened a “disclosure of social ills,” provoking a much-needed discus- sion about a pluralistic Finland (Kyyrö 2009:57–76).3 For Smeds, this Unknown Soldier does not seek peace.
