About the destruction of unnecessary objects.

In this work I destroyed useless decorative items given by relatives, firends and acquintances. The items get destroyed piece by piece, phase by phase. I break the items eg. by tearing, squeezing, riddling, burning and melting.

Animated stop motion and some instances of go motion.

Niina Suominen: script, camera, editing, direction, production
Risto Ylihärsilä: music.

Production supported by: Finnish Cultural Foundation and AVEK - The Promotion Centre for Audiovisual Culture.
