Beyond with Saara Salmi and Marco Melander
In April, as a part of BEYOND, photographers Saara Salmi and Marco Melander recounted their Atelieri O. Haapala project. The project grew from one-off event photobooth to eight years of neo-Victorian portraits, adventures, exhibitions and more.
The duo took us BEYOND time discussing why nostalgia fascinates so many and how the past is always perceived through the lense of current views.
