Riitta Päiväläinen II


ICE

Years ago I found a handmade dress from second-hand shop.

It fitted me perfectly. To whom this dress was made for?

What was the story of her life?

For me a piece of clothing represents its former wearer.

Someone was present while ago, but now she/he is gone.

The faded colours and tears in the fabric show the signs of the time passed.

The distinction between absence and presence is subtle. Riitta Päiväläinen
