ABSTRACT
This thesis seeks to explore the restoration and conservation
in concrete sculpture especially as concrete is one of the oldest of
the sculptural medium that has been in use in our contemporary society.
Overtime, concrete sculpture has been left unattended to by the
non-application of preservatives thereby exposing it to the effect of
strong winds, extreme humidity and abrupt temperature changes leading
to structural wear; and in most cases these bring about failure of the
sculpture. The consequences of failed sculpture include the erosion of
our cultural heritage, which leads to the loss of sculpture that are of
historic and academic interest. In addition, sculpture failure is
becoming more rampant and if not addressed may in no small way deter
robust research into who we are and our productive artistic past. Based
on this, objectives were set to address the problem. The methodology
employed is that of survey and studio experimentation whereby failed
concrete sculpture within the sculpture garden of the department of
Fine and Industrial Arts of the University of Uyo were discussed. This
research found out that there is a high negligence of sculpture as an
essential feature of aesthetics in our built environment. These findings
will be beneficial by encouraging the society to restore and conserve
its neglected sculpture for posterity sake – as failure of sculpture is
failure of the society, and inadvertently failure of the sculptor(s)
involved.
The study recommends that ab initio, adequate provision of
sculptural materials be made to include what is essential for its
sustenance and preservation. In addition, restoration and conservation
ethics and code be incorporated as it is obtained in other climes.
