Yawn Temiseva

Born in Tampere, Finland, Yawn’s family moved to Toronto when he was six. Fortunately, they took him with them. In addition to his visual art and graphic design activities, Yawn is a singer/songwriter who has played in several Toronto bands over the years, most notably Normal for Once and Lung Slug. His recent obsessions have included chess, typewriters, flight simulation, Rubik’s Cube solving, and baseball (spectating, not playing – Yawn can’t throw a ball to save his life). Actually, the last part isn’t quite true: last summer he successfully played catch with his roommate.
