We already know who the winner is of the competition for the outdoor sculpture that is supposed to be placed on the area of the constructed Volkswagen plant in Białężyce near Września. The winner is Patryk Gniedziejko from Białystok, MSc. Eng., landscaping architect, enthusiast of art and architecture. His idea  “Volk’ i Space” plans construction of an installation that will be at the same time a zone of relax for employees of the production plant. The shape and the form are supposed to refer to the shape of Volkswagen Crafter, whose serial production will be started this autumn. The sculpture will be made of concrete, wooden composite and  weathering steel. The designer has not forgotten about green areas – humming grass, decorative shrubs and flowers will make a real green enclave at the sculpture.

Project implementation is planned for September this year.

Twelve works took part in the competition, from which the jury composed of the representatives of the Company and the University of Art selected 3 projects.
