The artwork is exhibited in the Kuva/Tila gallery on the 1st floor of the Mylly building.
It was so bright in the morning that even my brain hurt
and glowing rings appeared behind my eyelids.
I poured more water for the tulips
not too much because tulips absorb water all along their stems.
Tyrkisk peber clattered against my teeth
when I tried to pull up the stuck blinds
and the mint green plastic cat's gaping eyes shone through its head.
I thought about Kukka.
And I thought about things I haven't paid attention to
the mirror covered with a kitchen towel
hoary knee (left) of my pants
and chair leg marks in the floorboards.
Artist Juliana Hyrri was born in 1989 in Viro, Kohtla-Järve.
