In this short video, Tyson reflects on what he learnt about public art over that period. Footage includes temporary sculptures and illustrations from SCAPE Public Art Season 2025: The Limits of Language, plus clips from an interview recorded at Hotel Montreal, corner Montreal & Kilmore Streets, Christchurch.
