Created by Riikka Latva-Somppi in 2015, this six-part public artwork draws on local historian Lauri Leppänen's texts from the 1950s. Translations into thirteen languages are sandblasted into square and park paving. Materials also include corten steel and black granite.
Four steel letters P at parking garage entrances form part of the work. After dark, lighting and projection change its appearance, with a shadow on the paving suggesting tree leaves.
