About
Sculptor: David Wynne. Nicknamed as Jack Frost, this spikey metal sculpture of a man symbolises the fires that fuelled the city’s main industries of ceramics, mining and steelworks. The sculptor spent some time in Stoke-on-Trent looking for inspiration and he said “..it hit me that the sculpture must have something to do with the great fires which dominated the life of the city”.
Have your say on public art in the city...
Stoke-on-Trent City Council is creating a register of public art to help inform planning decisions, related to any future regeneration schemes – as well as seeking to understand how people currently engage with public art in Stoke-on-Trent.
The authority already has a 72-strong inventory of public art installations across the city – some of which you can view here on the Visit Stoke website – and it is looking to develop the list even further – with the help of the city’s residents/visitors.
If you are interested in taking part – please click on the following link to complete the survey:

The engagement exercise will run until Wednesday 31 January 2024.
