Idea of my work: Word & Stories in Espoo Keskus


When I walked around in Espoo keskus, I was getting curious about "How does people feel about this area?". As I posted last time, I want to know how the place connect to people's feelings so that I decide to measure it somehow.


Then the thing what came up my mind was "かるた遊び(Karuta game)" is a kind of card game common traditonal culture in Japan.

Not only traditional way to play, but also there is a Karuta that represents regional characteristic in Japan.

Study model of Karuta card

















Even I got an idea from Karuta game, I'm not sure/ I don't intend to make same kind of card game. But I want to make this as communication tool.
My work's concept is to show random people some images of Espoo keskus and collect few words and sentences from them in there. Those images are the scenery or object and so on I took pictures in Espoo Keskus.































Those cards are study models of my idea. Collecting words and sentences are could be some stories from local people.
