Visual Diary
On the last day in Finland, we enjoyed an afternoon in the forest where there’s a nature trail and a sculpture park “Edvininpolku”. All the sculptures are made by Edvin Hevonkoski, a sheet-metal worker who started to make these wonderful works of art in 1982, after retiring. There are over one hundred pieces dotted along the forest path. Whereas some call this “outsider art”, to me it’s every bit valid as simply art. Incredibly wonderful works in natural surroundings, I aim to visit every year.
