The Netley Sculpture

Artist Nick Hornby commissioned to create sculpture

Funded by Developer’s Contributions, Eastleigh Borough Council has commissioned a new sculpture for Netley by artist Nick Hornby. The artist will be researching the history of the area to develop his design for a large-scale sculpture on land owned by Hound Parish Council.

In 2024 Hornby won the Public Vote for the most popular new sculpture shortlisted for the Marsh Award for Excellence in Public Sculpture, for his 12 metre high Corten steel sculpture titled ‘Power over Others is Weakness disguised as Strength’.

Hornby is a British artist based in London. He is a Fellow and Trustee of the Royal Society of Sculptors and has exhibited his work nationally and internationally including Tate Britain, the Fitzwilliam Museum Cambridge and The Museum of Arts and Design New York
