Lotta Hurnanen takes me on an excursion to two of her special outdoor spots in Helsinki. We talk about experimental photography techniques, and leaving your film or prints outdoors for up to several weeks to let nature work its wonders. We sit in a ditch next to a highway, where Lotta let her film rolls soak in a little stream of water, in order to make psychedelic landscape photography. Afterwards we visit a community allotment garden, and Lotta tells about how she is simultaneously studying to become an artist and a gardener, and how she has realised that she would rather work on a farm than in the artworld; feeding the world food instead of art. She also explains how you can print the shape of melting ice with cyanotype, and we get to learn a bit about plants!
