Marja Pirilä has at least two books: One is purely pinhole images to
poems by Leena Krohn, don't know if it has been translated but Finnish
name is: Aukeavat sormenpäiden silmut (funny eh?) and another where
Pirilä darkens a room and places a lens somewhere in the window so the
exterior will be photographed in the same time as the interior. Book is
translated into English and called Interior/Exterior. Both books are
published by Musta Taide, Helsinki. Hope this helps.
