| Description |
"The word 'viita' brings to my mind femininity, a woman's connection to nature and the ability to renew oneself over and over again. Viita can be something wild, unexpected, gentleness, mystery, silence, joy, laughter and freedom. Viita can also be the inner shaman that we all have inside of us. In this work, I am attracted by these different women and the power that makes them who they are." Ervi Sirén |
