Permanent Sculpture Collection at Big Rock Garden Park

"Form of Chain" by Kenji Gomi

Big Rock Garden Park boasts a collection of 36 permanent sculpture pieces by distinguished international and local artists. 

The permanent collection has been acquired through purchase, donation, award and memorial.  The most recent addition to the permanent collection, Form of Chain, by Kenji Gomi, is featured to the left. 

Kenji Gomi, of Tokyo, is an acclaimed sculpture known for his monumental civic sculptures throughout Japan and Korea.  Gomi is a founder of the Environmental Art Studio and has won several prestigious competitions for public art installation.

Form of Chain is a resin and stainless steel piece that highlights Gomi's continued interest in how the rules of geometry are reflected in shapes found in nature.  It also explores the concept of infinity through the repetitive use of a singular form.
