ANETTA LUKJANOVA & TANELI STENBERG, Leonkatu 22

Anetta Lukjanova ja Taneli Stenberg

When the Kalasatama district in Helsinki was under construction we had the chance to paint the first murals of the area.

In September 2017 we painted both sides of a large ramp that leads to a courtyard in Kalasatama, in Leonkatu 22. Residents got their say in resident meetings and the style and themes of the piece were selected on the basis of their wishes. Rising Finnish artists Anetta Lukjanova and Taneli Stenberg both painted one wall of the ramp. Formerly grey ramp now welcomes people home everyday with colours and familiarity.
