Maria Matinmikko’s literature moves along the boundaries of genres, combining poetic, philosophical, and societal thought in various ways. In her two most recent books, SIIS NIIN, suuri ihmetys (2025, Siltala & Parvs) and Valohämy – taide, maisema ja maailmanloppu (2023, Siltala & Parvs), the form of the work expands to include photographs taken by the author and paintings and drawings by visual artist Sami Jalonen.
