This document provides an introduction to a project about art in public spaces. It discusses exploring ideas through experiments with simple materials like paper and card. The document mentions several artists who have created public sculptures, and poses questions about different types of public artworks - what they represent and where they could be located. It outlines that students will work in groups on experiments and challenges over the next 5 weeks to explore different materials and techniques for creating monumental public art pieces.
