Daniel Palpa is a Helsinki based filmmaker and visual artist. His work spans into the intersections of media consumption, religion, and politics, using mediums such as moving image, photography, and sculpture.
Palpa's work brings poetic narratives to public spaces, challenging conventional personal expectations. He aims to encourage viewers to embark on a visceral journey that dismantles preconceived notions of reality, enriching day-to-day perspectives.
A recurring theme in Palpa's art is the examination of how belief, imagery, and ideology intertwine and are constructed within a consumerist landscape. This exploration is often manifested in his large-scale installations, which reimagine aesthetic vandalism and propagandistic seduction while questioning their surroundings.
