Bank of America Jacksonville Campus Public Art Commission

The Bank of America Jacksonville Campus, a newly renovated financial institution in the Deerwood area of southeast Jacksonville, is seeking an interior kinetic mobile sculpture for its elevator lobby space. The sculpture should engage both patrons and employees and be inspired by the "Urban Zen" aesthetic represented in the Campus' design, composed of colored, translucent panes. The sculpture will be suspended from the skylight in the Elevator Lobby with dimensions of approximately 120" diameter x 216" height.

Artists must submit a proposal with concept sketch (colored pencil sketch or computer rendering), artist statement, resume emphasizing a minimum of 3 years of professional visual art experience and public commissions, and a minimum of 2 completed projects in 8 high resolution images plus up to 2 optional videos (120 seconds each maximum). References from two individuals with whom you have worked, collaborated, or who have commissioned your work are required. Artists must be over 21 years old, not a student in a formal degree program, and have been creating and installing public art for more than three years. General commercial liability insurance with additional insured certificates is required.

The project budget is $22,500, which includes all costs to the artist for artwork proposals, artwork, mounting materials, shipping/delivery, insurance, travel, and installation. The client will provide site preparation. The anticipated timeline includes artist selection by April 21, 2022, commissioned artist notification on April 22, 2022, contract execution on April 26, 2022, final design due May 4, 2022, and site preparation and installation on June 15, 2022.
