\u201dBalancing within the boundaries of what is proper, sensible, or good taste is not always possible or even necessary. Liberation of some kind is possible, even within four walls, into a reality where wings sprout from peoples backs. Ripsu embarks on a frank parody of the luxury home life performances put out so brusquely and feverishly by reality television and social media.\u201d
\n\u2013 Anna-Kaisa Rastenberger<\/p>\n

Ripsu Hongisto-Salmi (b. 1954) is a highly versatile photographer and photographic artist from Helsinki, who also goes by Ripsu. After four years of work, Ripsu is publishing her monograph work entitled Personas.<\/p>\n

A great many photographers in history have photographed themselves as subjects. Yet even in a short span of time, Ripsu has created a recognizable personal style in this ubiquitous form. The book Personas contains Ripsu’s self-portraits, taken in her home in T\u00f6\u00f6l\u00f6, Helsinki. Core themes in the images are mature womanhood, joie de vivre, colors, luxury, and courageous self-esteem. Roles switch up quickly in Ripsu’s photographs, but they are all equally true and real. The style changes with them: some are like fashion magazine stock photos, others show unadorned everyday normalcy, and many include a liberating self-irony and sense of parody.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
