"But actually, I really just want to P R O VO  CA T             E and create discussion in the society, 


a society

active

for too

long, 

or maybe it can,

I do not personally wish to participate in the conversation of the subject matter, we are individually responsible for ourselves, mostly, I just want to direct the way" said Ms Turtola in an interview today with herself by herself about her exhibition. 

Freud, You were right.

Niina Turtola's Love Matters in Art mobile posters were invited to join the Day of the African Child by the Embassy of Finland.

The Day of the African Child was celebrated on Saturday at the after-school centre in Katutura. The event was held under the theme ‘eliminating harmful social and cultural practices affecting children: Our collective responsibility’.


Thank you!

Posters belong to where people are!

Now in the cover of the Weekender, the weekly supplement to the Namibian, the national newspaper of Namibia.


This is a major breakthrough! To spread the message of the importance of   l e tte rs.  Text. Reading. Education. D e s i gn. V isual t ext. Context. Conceptualisation.

We are over-exposed to full color digital images, digital photographs of people, people, and people: posing leftways, rightways and sideways. There is no space for imagination nor thinking. Love Matters is using colloquial languages to conquer the mind of people, giving alternative views, with T e X t.

Design is thinking, conceptualising and making the concept visible with text. Love Matters challenges everyone working in the design industry to think before acting.

Time for celebration! Thank you the Editor of The Namibian, Johnathan.
