Public Artwork for the city of Helsinki and HAM Helsinki Art Museum: Two installations of wooden sculptures were made for Honkasuo daycare.
The sculptures were made from curved pieces of reclaimed timber and carved into repeating round shapes.
The resulting ooooooo-shapes relate to ideas of repetition and quantity: annual growth rings of a tree, cycles of days and years, chains of events, or generations of trees, humans, and others.
The sculptures are touchable and will age and change over time.
