Nereidi, Seven-meter aluminum sculpture in Kalasatama, Finland.

The Nereidi sculpture combines laser-cut aluminum plates forming a figure mounted on a wave-shaped concrete base near Redi Shopping Mall.

Hans-Christian Berg created this installation after winning an international competition in 2016 for public art in Helsinki's urban spaces.

The sculpture takes its name from Greek mythology's nereids, sea nymphs, while incorporating modern industrial materials and techniques.

The structure stands at the southern end of Kalasatamankatu street, serving as a meeting point and orientation landmark for visitors.

When viewed from different angles, the sculpture transforms from abstract lines to a figure gazing upward into the distance.
