Characters

Sakari Kiuru (b. 1961) searches for old photographs and reworks them digitally. He constructs a surreal reality in which a person is reduced to posture and attire. His precise alterations bring the images to life and lift them to a universal level: someone’s forgotten memory becomes a vivid story.
