Here’s a couple of portraits I took of Jonne Järvelä while filming ‘Harhainen höyhen’ music video. It was a beautiful project to be a part of. The subject matter of the song and the video was quite rough but important at the same time.
Here’s what Jonne said about it:
‘Harhainen höyhen’ is a song that deals with mental health problems and how a person can think they are weak and be susceptible to problems, as the weakest and poorest feather. Then you can hear bad things in your head which at worst can lead to committing suicide. I myself have been in a situation where I heard a voice in my head that said that my clock had rung a long time ago and that I could leave this world. But then I realized that my time wasn’t even remotely over yet … anyway this song is for all of us out there with mental health issues and about how wrong it is to harm yourself. – Jonne
