A maintenance plan for a public sculpture proposal
When you develop a public-sculpture proposal, name the organisation that will care for the work and the information it needs. Record the materials, finish, supplier details, installation date, manufacturer’s cleaning guidance, inspection questions and repair contact. Plan how you will document the work if its condition changes.
Do not write maintenance instructions that exceed the evidence or the maker's qualifications. A maintenance plan is not an engineering inspection schedule, conservation assessment or safety certification. The site manager and relevant specialists should determine what checks are appropriate for the actual work and location.
For local heritage-learning context, explore the National Museums of Kenya’s Heritage Training Institute and KENCID’s Sculpture course. Use your project brief to identify who will care for the artwork and what information they will need.
