Kankari has been a family cottage in Oulunjärvi for 50 years and the soul and force that sustains it is a 86-year-old grandmother from Oulu. The work is an experimental praise for childhood games. It seeks to create sustainable ecology by immersing in the miniature of utopian world. The picture is from Kankari. It has my sister, me and grandma in it, in the early 90s.
Second picture is from Ärjä island. Taken by Vaara collective / Ia Samoil.
Concept and performers Cousins Iina Taijonlahti and Kaisa Karvinen
