Lilla Turi’s book „Things I Remember” is like an exhibition – an exhibition of a life journey that we arrange ourselves, then walk around, admire or just quickly pass by some of its frames.

Or like a treasure box that we rarely open, yet we know exactly what’s inside. Lilla Turi’s illustrations are as unmistakable as the little objects in the box: with her dynamic, sometimes confident, sometimes uncertain linework, her strong complementary colour palette, her distinctive depiction of people, she makes even the oldest stories vivid and present. This is the way she presents her life’s images, but the concreteness of the images is matched by the universality of the short sentences, from which anyone can create their own life story.

As the book says: „Everyone’s story begins here”. Lilla’s story began here too, so she collected these personal memories in a picture book so that we can remember our own. We can look at it, talk about the pictures, the events, the people and everything that comes to mind. The things we remember. Or the things we will remember.
