Installed
beside the Tate Modern, the permanent work has attracted the attention
of the worlds media, and is accessible at all times.

At
first glance Monument to the Unknown Artist appears to be a simple
bronze statue, dressed in a neck scarf and loose fitting suit. However,
the six meter monument seeks inspiration from passers-by, inviting them
to strike poses which he copies, continually changing his form in a
light-hearted and mischievous way. The unique sculpture offers an
alternative and accessible creative experience for the public allowing
them to create a dialogue with the work of art.
