Harri Pälviranta, Battered “Battered is based on social and contemporary documentarism, and visually images are related to crime scene photography (all the way to WeeGee) and police pictures.” “I worked with the topic for two years, spending many of my weekend nights in the center of the town called Turku (in South West Finland) looking for fights and battered people. Also I have worked in cooperation with the Turku Police Department, travelling with them in their cars. Battered was exhibited for the first time in its total volume in Gallery Uusitalo in Helsinki from 29.11.−21.12.2007.”
