BIO
Monika Eva Hauck (aka monautomaton) is a Canadian/Polish VJ and multidisciplinary artist based in Helsinki, Finland.

Her wider practice extends to painting, drawing, sculpture and photography, in which her process based practice informs her approach to installation and performance installations. Hauck holds a BA in Studio Art from the University of Guelph and is a co-founder of the A/V project Static Channel, where she does live visuals and performs synth.
