Kekkonen

When I was a child I thought Kekkonen was a synonym for president. Urho Kekkonen was the longest-serving President of Finland (1956–1982). This Kekkonen/Darth Vader graffiti made by Matti Lankinen is in Hiedanranta area in Tampere. Last week there was an urban graffiti happening called Spraycancontrol, where over 50 graffiti artists painted old factory walls. Painted area was roundabout 1000m². We went for an evening walk there to see the paintings. We also found an interesting floating group garden from Hiedanniemi, I'll blip it another time! Sami poses in the extra photo.
