House and Homes is a therapeutic photography project that started from the need of belonging and the need to create my own home space.

As an international student and expat, I found myself homesick many times. I decided to convert my homesickness into a discovery quest of the new neighbourhood I just moved in my first year in Finland. I ended up with a photography series of 19th century Finnish wooden houses from multiple neighbourhoods from Tampere.

What is home?

Additionally, I decided to interview 13 international students from all over the world: Germany, Mexico, Thailand, Romania, Finland, Belgium, Canada, USA, India, Japan and ask them what home means for them.

The interviews became a sensorial AV installation for ‘Aerial Roots’ Exhibition. I designed also a book for it. Click on the below image.
