Arja Hyytiäinen Notebooks 2002-2011

The notebook is a tool Arja Hyytiäinen has long preferred to work with. She uses it like a laboratory where she conducts experiments, her notebooks overflowing with intuitions and meandering paths. In her cahiers, text and images intertwine, scribbles, cuts, and fading lines opening doors to new creative possibilities.

“I want to document the broken pieces, the inner visions. The images that haunt and save us. Hands carrying beans like corpses. The image as a whisper. Timelessness as a measure. Fictional and self-experienced.”
