Four sisters take on time


Another intriguing project: Helsinki-based Wilma Hurskainen and her three sisters attempted to recreate about 30 photographs their father took of them when they were young. Several of the resulting photos are here.

Says Hurskainen: "It seems as if we were trying to go back to our childhood by adopting the same position towards each other and the photographer's/spectator's gaze but we unavoidably fail. We have to fail – there is no return in time. " You can see more of Helsinki's work here.

(Thanks to Jen Lowe for the tip!)
