The artist made stone sculptures which emulate the Finnish landscape. The one shown has placed in the new residential area of Arabianranta. The shiny and smooth black granite sculpture provides a contrast to the matt, lightly-toned slabs of the yard path - a contrast which is reminiscent of Japanese gardens. ©  The artist © Helsinki City Artmuseum WWW-production: Lasipalatsin Mediakeskus Oy, Flammable Solutions Oy 2001
