A Story Within and Beyond

In 2013 Aga collaborated with The Endangered Archives Project (EAP) at the British Library. EAP rescues collections that may otherwise have been lost. She has looked specifically at a digitalised photographic archive of southern Siberian indigenous population. The project culminated in the prints being shown in the Encounters between Art and Science exhibition at The British Library in London.

Tamiola investigated the science of photography at the turn of the 19th and 20th century, as well as the character of ethnographic research of that time. The prints are an attempt to keep alive the stories of the indigenous peoples of the Arctic Circle.
