Lina Study I, II and III by Tony Jones

A symbol for the City of Stirling. The stunning statue of Lina stands 10 metres tall at the entrance of the City of Stirling Civic Complex. Lina has simple references to gardening industry time and community and has come to be recognised as a symbol for the City ushering and directing the community in their engagement with the Council. The name Lina is derived from the artist's memories of an Italian woman who lived locally and worked for his father during the 1950s and 1960s. The memories of Lina are of a generous cheerful and helpful woman who gave an insight into another culture and life.
