THE WINDOW

Viiskulma 16.11.-4.12.2011

The first window of my life is located upstairs in my childhood home, the window of my old room. The view opens to the North: trees, the lights of Noiro Industry and still further the lights of the center of Kauklahti, quite normal urban area. As a child I daydreamed that the window opened me the way to the world. The Noiro Industry house transformed to the Eiffel Tower and the village of Kauklahti to New York.

During the years the windows have became replaced. They have faced to the street of Lönnrotinkatu, the statue of Yrjö Jylhä, the smoker’s area of Orivesi College and now the wood house quarter in Käpylä. But through these years the same thought of windows leading me to the wide world has remained. The window stands for me of the continuation and hope, the force of imagination, witch has never disappeared. Thereof I am highly grateful.
