The collage-based series of works, Personae Aboenses, is inspired by people who used to live in the museum area as well as other familiar Turku residents from the 16th century to this day. The large-scale characters combine people, animals and different eras. The public outdoor exhibition is on display indefinitely and can be freely admired from outside the museum. This one represents Catherine Magnusdotter, known in Finnish as Kaarina Maununtytär (1550–1612). Kaarina was a commoner who became the Queen of Sweden as the wife of King Eric XIV. She is portrayed as a sea bird looking towards Sweden.
