My cooperative, Co-operative Action of Culture Turku, celebrates 20 years this year. Cooperative honours the 20th anniversary with a series of exhibitions. The first one, The Power of Growth, is now running at the Botanical Garden of the Univesity of Turku.
I love the vast landscapes and majestic views, these give perspective to one’s own life. But what really makes me tick, is the beauty of imperfection and fleeting time. Nothing compares to finding beauty in ordinary and plain sights and details. You can find me most enthusiastic with my camera in the front of wilted plants, twigs and seemingly insignificant debris and trash. These keep me grounded, keep me in the present and accepting and rejoicing the everlasting change.
This winter has been moody in Southwest Finland. The weather has been constantly changing. Temperatures have been mostly mild which lead to short period of supporting ice cover. However, at the same time this winter has been great to enjoy nature’s own art form of imaginative and inspiring ice formations.
Now only memories remain from ice and photographs that support the memories.
