A public artwork's impact goes far beyond its physical presence. It's a beacon that embodies the ideals of a community. It does not exist in isolation; it is inherently place based. Every sculpture exists in physical space, but not every sculpture creates a "sense of place". Place is a unique identity cultivated by the integration of an artwork with its surroundings and social purpose. Purpose-driven artwork for the public should echo shared values. Each community has a unique spirit, and the art that will become part of a community is an opportunity to express and enhance that ethos. It's therefore the artist's job to explore and understand this ethos and express its essential nature in the art.
