About the speaker

Imagine this.
Your name is Tommi Viitala. You hold a beautiful book in your hands containing stories that burn red-hot to be told as a film. You have no budget. What do you do?
This is a story about teamwork, pain, individuality, belonging, friendship art and blood. Its about the meeting of skin, a buzzing needle and richly pigmented INK; this months global theme for your CreativeMornings/Helsinki.
Come hear Tommi’s story of how creativity applied to the seed of an idea can help make the un-makeable made and bring together a team to create something through a generous collective interest purely in being involved.
This might sting a little but it’l be worth it.
