Launching at the unsettling milieu of both Helsinki and Mexico City’s poetry and art scenes, Daniel Malpikka has emerged as a transatlantic author in the literature and multimedia domains while exploring the intersections of language, graphic design, and digital expression. As a multimedia artist and curator, Malpica has been involved in developing cutting-edge transdisciplinary literary productions across Europe, the Nordics, and Mexico.
His work has been featured and commissioned for places such as the Contemporary Art Museum of Helsinki (Kiasma) and the Helsinki International Artist Programme (Hiap). Malpica was editor and designer of Radiador Magazine and a member of the board of directors of the Finnish PEN. He served as the artistic director of the Copenhagen Literature Festival in 2022.
