Nina Mattila / Finland
"As a little girl I used to love sit under a fir tree and watch people passing by. In my mind I always tried to step into their shoes and imagined where I was going and what could happen on a way there.

Being this invisible bystander, I always try to capture moments as they are and how I see them. I think that posing is taking away all those genuine impressions and emotions that you can see if you just watch people little further away.

As an visual artist and a photographer my work presents emotional and touching, but still everyday things. The stories and emotions that shows on the artwork are depending on the mindset of the viewer. Someone finds piece of their childhood, others may see glimpse of present.

My childlike curiosity is encouraging me to try new techniques and styles to reveal my thoughts.

I will always want to do snow angels."
