Struggle video  series with photo-painting works, bid farewell to the character of the archetype suit-wearing male. Made in collaboration with the actor Niko Saarela, in each video work the main protagonist humorously acts out a seemingly every-day struggle, within various settings.
Depicted carrying a heavy suitcase through a snowy forest, falling asleep on the job and attempting to walk through crashing waves. Each absurd gesture reminds us that we must move forward while invoking an emotional response to his futile struggles and efforts.
