Kitukränn
Finland’s narrowest street is also an attraction at Christmas
The Geometry of Comets
This year, the light installation in Kitukränn features five playful comets by visual artist Mollu Heino. The stars have landed midway along the alley, coming to a halt, and their interiors can be glimpsed through small openings. Inside, a continuum of golden reflections unfolds, where various geometric shapes repeat endlessly.
The artist explains that it feels as though the world has gone so crazy that anything could happen – so why not comets in Kitukränn? The anatomy of the five luminous comets that have landed in the alley varies. One has a long tail, another seems to spin around itself, yet all share a glowing, golden, and angular core.
