Arja Hyytiäinen for the book has long been a privileged tool. Newspapers life and experimental laboratories, his notebooks are full of intuitions and turns. Texts and images are entangled. Deletions, cuts, lines of flight that always leave open the door to new creative possibilities.

"Completely contemporary, open and demanding work Arja Hyytiäinen part of the school day, the tradition of street photography, which replaced its form to request status author. Saying its need and singularity, dedicated to the subjectivity and influenced by the film aesthetic, the whole work, very respectful to people representative, is a new contemporary humanism. "
