Visual Catalysts book, CICAT2025, Finland.
“Art speech is not aimed only at artists and art lovers.
This book is meant to be a thought-provoking guide for a sustainable circular economy for various actors in companies, central organisations, ministries, as well as a catalyst for promoting sustainable change in cities and municipalities.
We need art’s new and creative way of thinking now more than ever before, since we need to make the U-turn away from the conventional, linear ways of thinking towards a sustainable future, both from social and economic viewpoints.”
CICAT2025
The joint project of Finnish universities, Circular Economy Catalysts: From Innovation to Business Ecosystems (CICAT2025) aims to facilitate the transition from linear to a circular economy. The project supports Finland’s strategic objective to become a global leader in circular economy by 2025.

Cover art for award winner Hugo Ticciati/Omodernt album
“From the Ground Up: The Chaconne”
is the category winner CONCEPT ALBUM from Gramophone Classical Music Awards 2020.
Directed by violinist Hugo Ticciati, the O/Modernt Chamber Orchestra is an integral part of O/Modernt. Meaning ‘Un/Modern’ in Swedish, O/Modernt explores the relationships between the work of old composers and the artistic and intellectual creations of modern culture, be it in music, art, dance, theatre, film or literature. The orchestra, comprised of the top young players from all over Europe, similarly devises eclectic and adventurous programmes, working with world-renowned soloists, jazz artists, rappers, performing anything from arrangements of medieval motets and Bach to Webern and Metallica. Artistic collaborations have included Steven Isserlis, Anne Sofie von Otter, Angela Hewitt, Evelyn Glennie and Nils Landgren. The orchestra is gaining an international reputation, with performances at the Wigmore Hall, Konzerthaus Berlin, Wiener Musikverein and Muziekgebouw aan ‘t IJ, Amsterdam. Moreover, the O/Modernt players enjoy their outreach and educational projects in Sweden and the UK as well as further afield in countries such as India and Thailand.
