Artists use lies to tell the truth while politicians use them to cover the truth up.

About Me



..

My name is Saara Salmi. I live in Helsinki and I make pictures. Posters, portraits, photomanipulation. Sometimes I paint sets and make props for movies. Sometimes I wish I was working for Tim Burton. *SIGH*

I get my inspiration of gothicness, christian iconography, fairy tales, kitsch, movies, musicals, heavy music, pin up, art nouveau, pop culture and the lowbrow art movement.
