Comics artist Jyrki Mäki, November 2017 and dramaturge Jukka Heinänen, October 2017, Ii, Startti group home.
The Adventures of Ville
When something is broken or misplaced in Startti, the culprit is known immediately: It is Ville, the imaginary pet piggy of Startti! Dramaturge Jukka Heinänen and comics artist Jyrki Mäki became well acquainted with Ville during their social art residencies in the autumn of 2018. The results included a short Christmas-themed film and comics that will be published in the Iin Iloinen Viesti magazine.
Visiting Santa's Village Christmas Magazine
In October, Christmas was already in the air at Startti! During the residencies of dramaturge Jukka Heinänen and comics artist Jyrki Mäki, the story of an Eskimo who gets lost in the Arctic Circle was developed around the table at Startti. Each participant could contribute to the creation in a way that best suited them: one was tasked with the writing, while others worked collectively on the illustration for the story. The Christmas magazine Visiting Santa’s Village (Kylässä Pajakylässä) was published in December 2018.
