mute spaces   in helsinki

the quality of space is critical for living: humans are able to adapt to a great diversity of climates, environments and, especially nowadays, even to ugliness.

the aim of this ongoing project is to show silent spaces in helsinki made by “mute” architecture. these images introduce an alternative way of perception which is placed between photographic language (typical for built architecture), and digitally created images (typical for unbuilt architecture). this intermediate language, between reality and image, shows new ways how the city can be perceiving in a way that people notice things they didn’t before: hopefully the city may be seen with new-critical eyes…

A four-metre long measuring rod with 80 points of light reveals cross-sections through WiFi networks using a photographic technique called light-painting.

»Trilogy started in 2003 with its first part, Woodland. It consists of photographic images taken in locations around the world including Kumano and Yakushima in Japan, the Blackforest and Teutoburger Wald in Germany, Fiordlands in New Zealand, the Dolomites in Italy, Big Sur in California and forests in Romania, Portugal, Scotland and several other  places. The second part, Underwater, began in 2005. Those photographs are taken near coasts, usually in a depth between 15 to 35 meters. Most recently they were shot in the waters around Croatia and Cyprus. In 2007, Mountain, the last part of Trilogy, was exhibited. «
