‘In I see my eyes Paola returns to material recorded during the laser eye surgery she had in Colombia. Working with these images alongside experiments on colour and black-and-white 16mm film, she explores how vision can change physically and through a change of geography.

Paola’s myopia began when she was ten years old and continued to progress over the years. The surgery took place during her first visit to Colombia after moving to Finland. It was a moment when a familiar landscape was already becoming distant and a new one was beginning to take its place.
