Risto was born on 11th of april, 1984. This is his third attempt of creating a book. The first try was made in 2007 in co-partnership with Espen Ibsen. The book was called "PityCity"and was highly ironic, paradoxic and never published. Second attempt was a picturebook of pictures from 2010. It was made 10 copies and the feedback was positive, but it never got further. Now, this book of love, is his third attempt.
