“Romance and harshness is branded in the visual image of a cowboy. The prevailing idea is still a lonesome twenty-something rascal moving from one camp to another whereas my cowboys are men, women and families. Draught, high land prices and changes happening in the cattle industry are making this lifestyle nearly impossible to continue as it has been.

Presently I follow more closely two little girls growing up in this very masculine world that is not striving. I want to see the change through the lives of these cowboy girls. My journey continues alongside them into their adulthood.” – Karoliina Paatos
