Mikki Noroila, Timon Mikki

Mikki Noroila (they/them) works between moving image and sound. Noroila's recent works draw on their Viena Karelian family histories to explore the legacy of Karelianism — a Finnish national romantic movement that imagined Karelia as the source of "an original Finnish culture."

TRACK: Human Resource

Performance game, Teater Viirus GUEST, 2018

w/ Julia Jäntti, Tom Rejström & Otto Sandqvist


In Human Resource we step into a playful game reality.  We gather around a collective board to try out, study, build, destroy, dream and search for new playing pieces, resources and forms of communality.

Human Resource is a tactile-social journey to our collective mental landscape.


Attn. Human Resource is not an interactive performance. All we ask is that you sit down for a moment and look inside the game.
You choose a player and create a new world history.
