Community art in Tapulikaupunki

Taidetta Tapuliin is a 3-year (2022-2024) project by Helsinki Urban Art that focuses on creating art and cultural events in Tapulikaupunki area. The first major sub-project was a communal art project that completely changed the exterior of Heka’s maintenance building at Kämnerinkuja 3. 

The worn-down maintenance building, colloquially dubbed as “The Shack”, was redecorated in a week-long communal workshop. The new exterior features leaves of trees that can be found in Tapulikaupunki region as well as hands reaching towards each other. Over 30 people from toddlers to retirees participated in the project.

Taidetta Tapuliin is a part of the Helsinki Model, city of Helsinki’s cultural strategy focusing on balancing and diversifying art and culture services in Helsinki. You can read more about the Helsinki Model here.
