Siri Haapanen: Juurehine
Juurehine is an artwork that tells border-karelian stories.
Juurehine (Made of Roots) examines Karelian heritage and the artist's roots in Border Karelia. The work combines Karelian imagery, symbolism, and traditional embroidery to tell the story of a “forgotten land,” whose memories begin to fade unless future generations carry them forward.
