We’re super excited to present “Bye Bye Bouquet Boy”, an exhibition by Aki-
Pekka Sinikoski. Aki-Pekka or Peki is a multifaceted artist whose creative
pursuits span visual art, literature, technology, and music. Particularly
recognized for his work as a photographic artist, he delves into themes such as
time, change, identity, and surface.

“Would you like to be a florist?” This question has been posed to nearly half a
million Finnish boys as part of the conscription process: in the reality where
boys are raised to be men by teaching them to kill, selling flowers represented
weakness and femininity in the psychological test. When it was asked of me, I
had already been selling flower bouquets at the Porvoo market for years. The
photographs in this exhibition tell stories about life, the essence of Finnishness,
and perhaps about me as well. About the boy who sold flowers.”
– Peki

Come around with your buds, the exhibition is FREE. Welcome!
