The Stone Guest, Sculpture in Taka-Töölö district, Helsinki, Finland.
The Stone Guest stands near the Töölö district as a large stone figure crafted with geometric shapes and angular surfaces integrating with surrounding architecture.
Finnish sculptor Hannu Siren created this permanent installation in 1995, adding a contemporary interpretation to Helsinki's public art collection.
The sculpture references the character from Don Juan stories, connecting Finnish public art to broader European theatrical and operatic traditions.
Visitors can reach the sculpture by taking tram lines 2 or 4 to Taka-Töölö, with multiple walking paths leading to the installation.
The stone figure emerges from its base using mathematical precision and geometric calculations to create optical effects changing with natural light.
