Later when it was installed, the sculpture will be enjoyed by park owners or others who come to the park. The statue did not have to be placed in an empty room. Just to make it more fitted, the distance between the statue and the room shall be noted.
“The point of the room is a place where you can enjoy the statue,” said Star.
High statue should also be adjusted with the width of the room. “For instance, wide room to enjoy the sculpture was three feet from the park. Thus, high image may only be one meter so that residents can enjoy it freely,” he said.
