I just keep looking at her kind face. The poem added on Facebook was fabulous but the photo stays with me all day and I look often to see it again. pure genius photography, pure genius to see inside the very soul of this lovely lady.
Dear Jeannot,
Thank you so much for your warm words, we greatly appreciate it and we are so happy our favourite Agnes spreads so much joy – she is one magnificent woman! We are a little bit curious about this poem you refer to, as we haven’t seen this Facebook post (this project lives its own life on the Internet..). It would be great to see a link to it, if it exists?
Many thanks again and all our best,
Karoline and Riitta.
I Am Not Old
I am not old…she said
I am rare.
I am the standing ovation
At the end of the play.
I am the retrospective
Of my life as art
I am the hours
Connected like dots
Into good sense
I am the fullness
Of existing.
You think I am waiting to die…
But I am waiting to be found
I am a treasure.
I am a map.
And these wrinkles are
Imprints of my journey
Ask me anything.

My daughter put it on fb I was smitten with both photo and poem.
I did not keep it, have no idea where it came from but it was last Sunday.
Your work is utterly fantastic.
