Fabio Lattanzi Antinori I Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, London, UK: The Cost of Your Words

First Plinth: Public Art Award 2019 winner Fabio Lattanzi Antinori’s sculpture The Cost of Your Words has been installed at the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in Stratford on 17th September.

Fabio won the First Plinth: Public Art Award in 2019 and was granted £10,000 to produce a large-scale sculpture for the sculpture terrace at Dora House, before moving to a second site at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. This is the first time The Royal Society of Sculptors has partnered with the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park to support the award and Fabio’s installation will be in place at this site for one year.

Working across a range of mediums including sculpture, print and interactive installations, Fabio’s work attempts to provide an understanding of the process by which notions of power, belief and the perception of reality are being shaped and shared in the society at large.
