Tender Grounds

KARHU through the lens of Mulieris

The editorial was born from the desire to tell the story of the world around us from an intimate and personal perspective. An inner world that often doesn’t align with the outer one, pushing us to seek refuge in our deepest essence.

In a time when reality feels increasingly difficult to inhabit, carving out a corner of positivity becomes a necessary, almost revolutionary act. Each individual searches for places, real or imagined, where they can feel seen, where they can truly be themselves.

The stories of Alyssa and Barbie intertwine and reflect one another: a subtle dance between the landscape of the soul and the physical world, between the artificial and the natural.

Two visions that merge, contaminate, and complete each other, creating a fragile yet powerful balance. The result is a visual narrative that celebrates the complexity of identity and the importance of finding or inventing a space where one can feel, even just for a moment, understood and safe.
