■ "When the Sense of Belonging is Bound to a System of Movement" by Maija Annikki Savolainen

Photography is generally defined as something that "stops time" or "leaves light on a photosensitive surface," but young Finnish photographer Maija Annikki Savolainen has focused on its mechanical aspects and published a concept book.

This book documents Maija's 10-day travels, during which she calculated the length of sunlight exposure to ensure it was the same each day. Her travel photographs, shot with light as the central focus, offer new possibilities for expression.
