Timo Vaittinen (b.1976), lives and works in Helsinki, Finland. The intense aesthetics of Timo Vaittinen reflect not only the artist himself, but also the generation he grew up in and around. Vaittinen works with various mediums from video to painting to spatial installations. His imagery is rooted in the popular culture that so many of us, in one way or another, have been part of.
