'Movement' is located beside the Kamppi metro station in a water pool, close to the busy Fredrikinkatu street. It comprises four birds in red granite, attached to a steel structure.

The work has a rather varied character. On the one hand, it is light like the flight of birds, filled with fascinating movement, and on the other, it's elements, granite and steel, lend it mass and firmness - the heaviness of the material contradicting the lightness of the subject.

The work has been temporarily removed due to construction work of Kamppi area.
