In a world where speed seems to dictate even the way we see, Mikael Siirilä moves in reverse. Slowly. Silently. With the quiet obstinacy of artisans who refuse to yield to the ease of the flow. For Mikael Siirilä, photography is not a medium, it is a craft, in the oldest sense of the word: a skill. With the exhibition "Distances," the Polka Gallery presents his work for the first time. A rare body of work, patiently crafted by him in the dim light of the darkroom, where each image is born from a dialogue between hand, light, and paper.
