Aapo Huhta is a photographic artist living in Helsinki.

Huhta combines elements of documentary practice and experimental darkroom techniques with subjective, everyday observations, creating a range of ambiguous and often fragmented narratives in his work. His works are aesthetically acclaimed for their ability to transform the ordinary into something enchanting. Exploring different forms of photographic narratives, methods, and possibilities plays a significant role in his work. This exploration has culminated in two photobooks, *Block* (Kehrer Verlag, 2015) and *Omatandangole* (Kehrer Verlag, 2019).

In 2014, Magnum Photos selected Huhta as one of the Top 30 Under 30 photographers. He received the Young Nordic Photographer of the Year award from Fotografiska in 2015 and was selected for the Joop Swart Masterclass in 2016. He was named Young Artist of the Year 2020 in Finland.
