About Us

Sinako Interaction Art ry is a registered non-profit association in Finland, founded in 2022 to empower people globally  championing mental well-being, gender equality, and human rights. 

 

At Sinako Interaction Art ry, our mission is to be a catalyst for transformative change, advocating mental well-being, health, and disease prevention through the impactful lens of interaction and art. Guided by the insights of a Eurofound study that unearthed the prevalent loneliness in Europe, especially during 2016 and the challenging months of the COVID-19 pandemic, we are resolutely committed to addressing the emotional, societal, and health consequences of isolation.

 

Our association aims to break the chains of social isolation and loneliness through innovative art and cultural initiatives, all related to the power of interaction. Rooted in the profound belief that art is a conduit for self-discovery and well-being, we have promoted the concept of non-digital interactive art (pioneering the Finnish word “vuorovaikutustaide” directly translated as interaction-art) as a powerful means to foster creativity and develop crucial interaction skills within individuals, communities, and the world at large.

In our relentless pursuit of societal harmony, we recognize the vital importance of gender equality and human rights, in particular women’s rights. We strive to weave these essential threads into the fabric of our mission, ensuring that our initiatives actively contribute to creating a world where all individuals, regardless of gender, race, or background, can flourish with equal opportunities and rights.

 

Beyond conventional boundaries, our commitment extends to bringing the healing force of art and poetry to marginalized spaces, including nursing homes for the elderly. Our impactful art exhibitions serve as dynamic platforms, introducing peer-supported interaction-art to new spaces and environments  (such as shopping malls and airports). By facilitating deeper and more meaningful interactions with oneself and others, we strive to bridge the gaps caused by loneliness and cultivate a sense of unity within diverse communities and most importantly evoke conversation and interaction.

 

Ultimately, our vision is to radiate hope, empathy, and a commitment to human rights across the world through the mediums of interactive art and coaching. Rooted in the values of empathy, hope, and equality, we passionately believe that, together, we can create a more inclusive, resilient, and harmonious global society where every individual's rights and dignity are upheld and celebrated.
