[Trending] After Becoming A Father I Started Collecting My Own Childhood Memories In Jars Using Multiple Exposures

Now, for three years I have been revisiting my old childhood environments to “capture” them into this personal collection. Most environments are from where I grew up, in the countryside in the south of Finland, where my roots still lie. As a container I used jar bottles produced by the food industry.

All images are intentional double exposures shot in-camera on a DSLR (Nikon D800E). You can read more about it on my Behancé page below.

Jarred & Displaced is an ongoing project, this is a second installment. You can see the first one here.

Candy Road

After driving my daughter to her nanny, I took a long turn back to revisit an area I haven’t been to since I was a kid. This nostalgic experience, when a ton of awaken memories flies through your mind. On this road I often bicycled to visit an old widow. She always had the best snacks, just in case someone would pop by.

First Snow

First snow was often witnessed from inside, through a window glass.

By our secret lake, where we used to jump into for a swim during warm summers.

Grandpa’s Old Barn

I visited my grandpa’s old farm. Sadly, was not really how I remember it to be, as it has been abandoned for years already. Still glad to see it again as it brings back these valuable memories… I learned how to bicycle here. Played archaeologist in my secret hiding place (under the ramp to the second floor of the barn). Years later I was cruising on his fields, as it was time to learn how to drive a car.

Deep Forest

Path II

When growing up on the countryside, there was always a new exciting path to explore. Sometimes I got lost, but in the end I always found my way back home.
