Jussi Nahkuri is fascinated by a photograph's capability to use time to reveal surrounding phenomena to be visually observed. Through repetition and rearranging the material, Nahkuri’s works give existential and abstract concepts a new tangible and spontaneous appearance. A passage of time is recorded into the works and at the same moment, he dismantles and recreates the way to experience the present. Nahkuri sees every work representing that very moment at one specific site when everything falls into its own place. He states that the best part of his work is the privilege: capturing the moment that was meant only for him. The most accurate way to grasp reality is to create proofs that it is in constant transition. Nahkuri co-operates with chance as he follows his intuition in the hope of encapsulating that precise instant when the essence of the unpredictable reveals itself. His works are dealing with existential themes and in the end they confront the subjective experience of duration – they are reminiscences of unique moments in one particular time and place, then are brought to the present to be interacted with.

Jussi Nahkuri was born in 1988, works and lives between Helsinki and Kouvola, Finland.   
In 2020 he graduated from Aalto University, School of Arts, Design and Architecture, with an MA degree. His works have been exhibited in institutions like the Finnish Museum of Photography in Helsinki.
