“A bold, modern, timeless sculptural landmark creating a distinctive identity for a new Lake Nona community park”
The City of Orlando invites professional artists and artist teams to submit preliminary conceptual proposals for the design, fabrication, and installation of a permanent monumental sculpture for a new community park in the Lake Nona community, a 14.2-acre recreational destination located along Luminary Boulevard. The park is envisioned as a vibrant gathering place that promotes recreation, wellness, and community connection. Planned amenities include pickleball and basketball courts, a splash pad, playgrounds, outdoor fitness pods, meandering walking trails, shaded seating areas, picnic pavilions, and a performance pavilion designed to host community events.
The City of Orlando is seeking an original, large-scale, contemporary sculptural artwork that serves as a visual landmark for the park while complementing the modern architecture and landscape of the surrounding Lake Nona community. The artwork should be bold, modern, unique, and memorable creating a distinctive identity for the Park and an engaging experience for visitors of all ages. Artists are encouraged to think boldly and propose innovative, contemporary sculptural works that establish a strong sense of place.
The City of Orlando welcomes designs that are timeless, visually compelling, and reflective of the forward-looking vision of the Lake Nona community. The selected artwork should become an iconic destination within the park while enhancing the visitor experience for generations to come. Artwork Type: Permanent monumental three-dimensional sculpture.
Pedestal: A custom concrete pedestal will be provided by the City of Orlando, with integrated uplighting. Installation will be coordinated with park construction and is anticipated for Summer/Fall 2027.
