To the North for Nonexistence
The Sámi people are the land of accumulation of time and the indigenous peoples of the polar regions of Northern Europe, which have been geographically isolated for a long time due to severe weather conditions. Nowadays, the traditional way of life of the Sámi people living in minority groups and their own identity inevitably arouse conflict with modern systems. To Anita Gimvall who is a Sámi tribe who has lived a lifetime in Lapland, it shows a cross-section of the recent arson incident in a traditional house. To the North for Nonexistence traces out a conflict and alienation at the ambiguous border between past tradition and modern life, settlement and deportation, thought and sharing, and stories of blurred boundaries and backgrounds inside and outside.
