EUROPEAN CONNOTATION by Tuomas Perttu Henrikki Laitinen

this is my final work from Kemi-Tornio Polytechnic

introduction

photo is authentic evidence from place. drawing is not

evidence. drawing is full of connotations. drawing tells

something about its drawer and his cultural background,

values and the way of thinking.

this is visual novel about me as a Finn in places where

i’m not from.
