For those who’ve not lived through it, historical wars often remain obscure events that challenge and defy imagination. Finnish artist Henri Airo explores the links between militarism and a collective memory of war in his home country through imagemaking and archival research.
Featuring texts by Henri Airo, Ahmed Al-Nawas, Susanna Hast, Noora Kotilainen, Saara Särmä, and Leena Vastapuu. The book is bilingual (FI & EN).
