FOUR BOXES OF HER



Photographer Päivi Anita Ristell’s exhibition ’Four Boxes of Her’ is a touching and personal story of the loss of her sister, Jenni. Dealing with sorrow and longing, the exhibition consists of several different parts: texts&images printed on rice paper, portraits, childhood photographs, sound installation...and as the name suggests; installation of the four boxes that Jenni’s things are packed into. Memories, longing and these four boxes – that is what remains of her little sister.

Marimekko s/s 13, The Art of Printmaking - Colour for a Reason

This season there was no Marimekko fashion show in Helsinki, instead it was held at New York fashion week – the fact that we are all so proud of!! Couple of days later, Helsinki crowd gathered to a movie theatre, where the NY debut was shown on the big screen. There was a lot of colour and prints– the core of Marimekko. Models took to the runway barefoot or sporting some Marimekko print Converse, smiling; the casting was also interesting as it showed a variety of different models.
