Working on a project on aging

leinonen — Thu, 05 Aug 2010 15:26:19 +0000

I am currently working on a series of photographs on old age. In our society youth is idealized and no room is given for aging. It is the young and the beautiful that are represented in the images around us. I have chosen to photograph people over 80 years of age, who I find fascinating with all of their knowledge and life experiences. They also seem fragile and bare expecting the evident that we all are to face oneday. Here are the latest wet-plates of my grandmother who is 86-years old. I photographed her in my greenhouse where the sun was filtered through the roof to get very even light.
