Hardcover, limited edition 500 copies, first edition and only edition - no re-reprint). 51 photos, visible seam and cutting cover pages, hand numbered + hand stamped.

Mikael Siirilä is a darkroom artist based in Helsinki, Finland.

"My small individual photographs examine the themes of absence, presence and outsiderhood. My characters appear immersed in their inner worlds and moments of being: simultaneously absent and intensely present.
The pictures also reveal the outsider’s gaze, lost in observation and reflection. My pictures are true observations captured with minimal interaction with the subjects. Their origin is in the act of looking, and they feel causally connected to the world."
