The National Museum of Finland in Helsinki will later this year return 2,200 artefacts to the Indigenous Sámi people thanks to an agreement with the Sámi Museum and Nature Centre Siida, in Inari, northern Lapland.
Following an initial repatriation agreement in 2017, the museum has compiled an inventory of the collection, amassed between 1830 and 1998. To make room for the artefacts, which include the oldest Sámi objects found in Finland, Siida had to build an extension that is now ready to welcome back the region’s treasures.

I am naked from the waist down, my weight balanced at the top of my tailbone and my feet up in the air with legs splayed out by plastic stirrups.
I am exposed, vulnerable and only vaguely preoccupied with the paranoia that if the screen in front of me possessed spyware, it would be able to conduct a reasonable mapping out of my sphincter for Google.
