Public Art

“My work is all about people! I create dynamic figurative sculpture which capture movement and can humanise public spaces.”

Faith creates artwork to commission for a range of public settings.
Faith and her team can provide the whole process from community engagement and consultation, design development, fabrication to installation. Project management support ensures the commission runs smoothly, on time and within budget!
