What does the summertime in Helsinki sound like, and which are the colours that reflect from it’s rooftops at sunset? How does it feel to see the endless open sea in the shore of Kaivopuisto? Which Helsinki moments are forever left in our memories?

Helsinki Tones, the summer exhibition of Lokal, is all about love, joy and longing for the mood, tones and colours of Helsinki. We invited Reeta Ek, Katja Hagelstam, Saija Halko, Hanna-Kaisa Korolainen, Ilkka Kärkkäinen, Juha-Pekka Laakio, Matti Pikkujämsä and Nathalie Lautenbacher to interpret the atmospheres of Helsinki and to redesign the shapes of the city we know so well.
