Estonian photographer Birgit Püve is interested in people caught in the centre of a larger narrative — national, historical or political. In her project Estonian Documents she studies the changing face of the nation, while in By the lake she photographs the inhabitants of the border territory of Estonia and Russia in their domestic setting. Püve’s work is really intimate, and for her the human face is the best way of transitioning from personal stories to global issues.
