Story & Message:
Blurred. Has it ever occurred to you that you have never actually seen your own face before, only pictures and reflections of it. The face, which serves as an essential feature of our identity, is ironically invisible to ourselves. And if this version of “self” only exists in the eyes of others, when no one is around to see it, can we be certain that this “self” is not a mere illusion?
From my project “The Dark Days of the Soul”
"The Dark Days of the Soul" is inspired by the darkness of Finnish winter and the limited ability to physically change places due to the situation in the world. In times like that new opportunities to travel arise. It’s a different kind of travel though, it’s a journey within.
Each work covers a particular state of mind that I translate into a visual form. Some of them are truly dark, some are bright, but this is how the duality of life works: we wouldn’t be able to see light without the darkness.
