Sampo

Standing 30-feet tall, this sculpture by Lee Imonen is fashioned from old-growth red cedar salvaged from a fire in Roseburg and galvanized steel. "The Sampo" is a reference to Finnish mythology, the Kalevala, in which gods create a magical harvesting mill, to help the people work with the land. It stands in the courtyard of the State of Oregon North Mall Office complex between Summer and Winter streets.
