Permanent Sculpture for Public and Architectural Sites
Yoko Kubrick develops permanent sculpture for civic, institutional, architectural, and landscape settings.
Projects are conceived in response to the physical and cultural character of a site while remaining grounded in Kubrick’s established sculptural language. Her studio works with architects, landscape architects, engineers, fabricators, foundries, stone ateliers, riggers, and installation teams to carry projects from initial concept through engineering, fabrication, transportation, and installation.
Kubrick works in marble, granite, travertine, bronze, stainless steel, and other site-appropriate materials. The studio can provide conceptual development, renderings, material studies, scale models, stamped structural drawings, foundation coordination, fabrication management, logistics, and installation planning.
Commission inquiries are welcomed from museums, public-art agencies, architects, landscape architects, developers, art advisors, and private collectors.
The Site
Architecture, landscape, sightlines, approach, light, shadow, and scale determine how a sculpture is encountered. These conditions guide the form and its placement within gardens, courtyards, interiors, and public space.
Carrara, Tuscany.
Material
The Stone
Stone is selected for its color, veining, crystalline structure, density, and structural character. Carrara marble, Calacatta marble, Bardiglio, granite, and other stones each establish different possibilities for form.
Years of carving in Carrara and Pietrasanta inform how Kubrick reads a block, establishes mass, develops curves, and resolves the surface. Material and form are determined together.
From Stone to Site
Engineering & Installation
Tides, a permanent Carrara marble sculpture at the University of San Francisco, required structural engineering, foundation documentation, transport, rigging, crane installation, and coordination with the site. These technical systems were resolved in service of the work's final placement and encounter.
Commissioned and site-responsive works are undertaken selectively.
