Circle of Friends

Joakim Sederholm

Päiväkoti Leipuri, Orpaanporras 14, 00920 Helsinki

Indoor Sculpture

Circle of Friends by Joakim Sederholm (b. 1969, Kauniainen) in Leipuri Daycare Centre consists of two components. The dog in the entrance hall is made of pieces of heat-treated sheet metal chased with a hammer and welded together. The distinguishing feature of the work is its surface treatment. Sederholm has developed a special technique in which the metal is heated to bring out a variety of hues in the material. The other component of the work features small dogs in fantastical contorted positions. Cast in bronze, the figures are mounted in a wooden frame.

The work was produced under the Percent for Art programme, and it belongs to the collection of the City of Helsinki, managed by HAM Helsinki Art Museum.
