About
Liisi Soroush observes embodied and spatial realities. Her main tools for elaborating the concepts in these experimental and site-specific co-creations are found at the interplay between various philosophies and technologies.

IA KIND NOTE: After pandemic isolation in baby-and toddler related mayhem, we landed straight to daycare crisis in Helsinki. From the very beginning we have made sure, that we are present for our child. Afterall for over a year our child did not have any other people than us. As multicultural family ( Finnish-Iranian-Spanish-Colombian) our networks are unexisting. Finally we have found a safe place for him at Spanish speaking daycare celebrating latino cultures in their richest variety....
Meanwhile I am establishing new ways on art-of-being and as maintaining passionate -focused -artist-explorer. Therefore, co-participating on and facilitating this discourse with fellow-female-mother-artists.....
Please do execuse my site being under construction, updates from 2019-2021 upcoming when back to studio full-time. Updated CV & portfolio material sent in request.
2022-23
We have finalised our Digital Creative programme. It was a enlightening experience on finding how to bring creative talent to the business world.
However I will focus on my academic life this upcoming year 2023 but will evolve
within the possibilites enabled by the programme slow-paced.
We are in search of a funding in terms of a possible project with a strong political and societal value ( activism and censorship). This project will be then under the consulation from and in collaboration KTH.
It is confirmed: our Hamistagan will be presented at WAM,City Museum of Turku 2023.
I have been selected among other 15 participants by Aalto Digital Creativest to participate incubator programme that will take place at the end of the year 22.
This will allow me to integrate creative and artistic thinking in real life innovative implementations in near and further future scenarios.
I have attended a Bellingcat - tool kit- course day provided by them, lucky me - I am a huge fan, looking forward for speculative design implementation and collaboration #radicalchange
2 works presented at MozFest Amsterdam on March, 2022, --------------------my lecture was looking into future hybrid war scenarios from the perspective of technology, surveillance, data, mediated warscapes from film to social media ...

Today I will continue with a learning curve and hoping to get indephts of felting as a handcraft and perceive tacit knowledgethrough it. Not to mention felt as a material itself has a very strong and intuitive agency and feed back loop together with a craftswoman. Along its properties I am looking forward on tacit experimenting and deepening my understanding on soma design theory and methods.
Not to mention, I am looking forward how to implement it in my upcoming design explorations. The first time I learn to know about it was at raw materials course conducted by designer Milla Vaahtera, wherefrom I continued to human-material interaction by PhD Bilge Aktas and she observes also my artistic outcome (project iFelt in my portfolio) in her “Human-Material Interaction: Examining the Material Agency Concept in Making Processes”.
Both of these lecturers have been enormous inspiration for me.

We have started a constructive dialogue with Petra Jääskeläinen, researcher in Creative-AI, working for the Ai and the Artistic Imaginary research project at KTH University, Sweden. Together with Petra and the research group, we will discuss our cretaive process, challenges and questions derive from it and connecting these with the ethical, sustainable and ownership perspectives that the research team is working with.
11.2021 Aleksi Knuutila and his research team from Vastapuhe.fi Vastapuhe.fi have shown interest in our project and are now consulting us on the topics of hate speech & online hatred.
More information on Aleksi Knuutila's project can be found on the Vastapuhe.fi website and HAFECT research project's website.
11.2021 Liisi is attending the Space for Humanity bootcamp organised by the DareDisrupt, Founders of Tomorrow.
11.2021 Our work {[[(爱 (ài) <3)*], (<3 爱 (ài))*], ((ài) <3 爱)*]]} has been published in nokturno.fi. https://nokturno.fi/vieraskuraattorinumero-ujo-systeemi-vihapuheen-kaantaja-ja-peli-jonka-voi-vain-havita/
10.2021 Liisi received a scholarship to attend the AI-Generated Media online course by the Fluid Interfaces Research Lab, MIT. Her work among multidiscplinary talent from representing biggest existing brands to futuristic research groups was considered as one of the most of creative outcomes.
13-16.10.2021 Our installation WWW is presented at Aaltoja! light & sound art festival in Kotka as part of the Flux Island exhbition. We are going to be invited for further collaboration.
