Over one generation

This is an exhibition project of connecting two generations through photography. Kalju Mihkelson was a village photographer and Merli Antsmaa's granddad.  Photo exhibition "Over one generation" ("Üle ühe põlve") started from a small idea. Merli Antsmaa found his already passed away grandfather's photo album. This was so inspirational for the young photographer that she decided to collect some of the photos and show them in public. 

 

"Over one generation" shows pieces of life in Estonia country side in the 1950.-60. and also the photos of nowadays. Kalju Mihkelson was a village photographer in Häädemeeste, Estonia. His granddaughter Merli Antsmaa has also been into photography. As they have never meet in real life, they meet in this form of art.
