HANKE

2026 HANKE

/ Theater Academy Helsinki, Thesis work


Scenography and production for a theater play

Art students flee to business school in hopes of a better future; to be part of something with more potential. HANKE is a process-lead performance and installation that buzzes about art, economics, hope, and dreams.

Play, improvisation, and collaboration have been the starting points of our artistic process. HANKE is a venture to imagine an uncertain future.
