Taideakseli is an extensive work of art executed in 2021. Taideakseli links already existing art to new artworks in the centre of Huittinen, forming an Art Route along the streets of the city centre. The route starts from the Sahko residential area and unites with the city's older artworks.

The street art project was led by award-winning professional artist Teemu Mäenpää and versatile contemporary artist Petra Martinez. In addition to professional artists, locals participated in the work. The main theme of the Taideakseli is communality. Artworks are made by several people by using multiple different techniques and materials, for example wood and clay.

As a result of Taideakseli-project, the city centre has been enriched with a variety of artworks. Originally Taideakseli's artworks was divided into four different sections: sculptures (wood carvings and clay birds), environmental art (flower fields and decaying trees), textile art (hand-printed fabric clips) and murals.

Some of the works from the Taideakseli street art project will remain, while others have already disappeared. The banners printed on recycled flag fabric have brightened up the streetscape for several years, but one by one they have deteriorated in the wind and sunshine. The lease on the flower meadow, which was rented with legacy funding for the project, is coming to an end, and 2025 will be the last mowing season. Over time, the wooden sculptures will return to the natural cycle, as was known when they were carved. The murals will continue to delight us for a long time to come, as will the ceramic birds.

Come and spot the works of art during a city walk in the center of Huittinen!
