Miia Rinne is a Helsinki-based artist working with experimental film and video. She holds a Master's degree from the Academy of Fine Arts, Helsinki and the University of Art and Design, Helsinki. In her works, Rinne often mixes older and more recent material with each other and makes something new out of them. Her films contain lots of movement and passing views, but also, in contrast, small particles of dust, that have drifted around the studio and caught onto the film.

Rinne has participated in exhibitions, festivals and events in Finland and abroad since the end of 1990s.

The latest solo exhibition reviewed in EDIT (2021) by Sanna Lipponen.
