CREATING ART AND MEDIA FOR SOCIAL CHANGE
There are many ways to tell a story. My name is Susan Tiihonen (she/her they/them) and I use an array of mediums to capture the essence of any message or content I create.
With 20+ years of experience in the arts and social service/social justice sector, I can work with you, your company or organization to engage every intended audience with content that is accessible and engaging.
Previous contracts include: illustrations, graphic design for online and print media, various forms of animated videos,
educational videos, creative videos
documentaries, audio projects and sound design.
I recognize how power and privilege play out in our society. I also recognize that there are many different consumers with, with differing needs. I am passionate about using art and media to educate, highlight and empower those who the message is for.
Should it be a stop motion animation, a graphic novel comic or a uniquely designed report, I am here to approach all projects with fresh eyes, fervour and a desire to understand the bigger picture and the personal experience.
Feel free to get in touch with me anytime. I look forward to hearing about your ideas!

The media arts play a huge role in how we see ourselves and the world around us. They have a way of moving an individual past facts and stats, to a place of intrinsic understanding. They are an accessible and energizing way to share information and this is why I love my work so much.
