"A good work of public art is like part of a living body. It matures with time and leaves a continuous record of its growth, becoming a cultural asset of which the community can feel proud," writes art academic Lin Pao-Yao in his book Cultural Thinking on Public Art.
「一個好的公共藝術有如人的生命活體，不僅會隨著時間長大，還會不斷創作成長紀錄，成為社區引以為傲的文化資產」，美術學者林保堯在《公共藝術的文化觀》一書中指出。
