Aura Saarikoski: Autobiographical Elements in Photography

↓ Watch artist interview below and learn about artist Aura Saarikoski’s practice and her work displayed in the Dialogues exhibition. ↓

Dialogues introduces a new concept in the presentation of the Saastamoinen Foundation Art Collection. The exhibition features pairs or groups of works that engage in free dialogue with one another, encouraging visitors to compare and draw parallels between them.

”I think photography actually fits in with autobiographical methods in a really interesting way because photography involves this idea of indexicality. That is, that photography is a picture of something that has actually happened in front of the camera in a time and place.”

You can put on subtitles from the cc icon at the bottom of the video.
