Anna Hyrkkänen: An Impression – the More the Distance, the Better the Visibility

An installation thematically connected with memory, memories, and temporal shifts.

An installation about a human being and human absence. The installation is reflections on disappearance, transformation, re-organisation – on life and death. The pieces of furniture and objects represent traces of human presence. Different realities and parallel worlds where time flows and circulates in a dreamlike state. In this spatial art piece reality and fiction, dream and waking state, intermingle.
