Reminiscent of minimal 70’s Japanese photography, Girl and Hat by Finish dark room artist Mikael Siirilä takes an outsiders approach to subject and form. Using the photographers gaze as his prime focus when creating compositions, Siirilä utilizes partial crops to enhance a sense of presence within his work. A beautiful, layered use of focal length is combined with traditional silver gelatin processed to create a piece full of depth and texture.
