installation with 10 HD videos and 10 framed C-typed prints

The starting point of the project was a performative intervention in which I asked various professionals to do their job on their behalf for one day. I asked them to document their day with one photograph.

The professions were: journalist/YLE The Finnish Broadcasting Company, social media influencer @sofiaruutu, elementary school teacher, personal assistant, museum guard at Ateneum Art Museum, environmental activist, foresight specialist at Sitra, stable worker/riding instructor, estate manager and a hairdresser. The installation consists of 10 HD-videos of the artist working each job and 10 framed photographs taken by the professionals on their day off.
