Sculpture at Intersection - Space Chowk

Sculpture at Intersection - Space Chowk

The intention:

Rourkela Still Plant (RSP) by SAIL is heart of Odisha. Not only it pumps money into city, but also is responsible for its social development. 

One key development among many is "The ring road", encircling the city. Four lane wider, 23 kilo-meters long road is laid to connect almost all 19 sectors of planned new Rourkela city and old Rourkela. It is maintained and decorated by RSP, as a social initiative. The divider gardens, lush green plantation on both sides of roads, broad side-walks of ring road keeps city traffic in order and makes commutation trouble free.

RSP architectures has creatively decorated the crossroads by raising aptly carved and suggestive sculptors made of steel. The new series "Sculpture at Intersection" is about such monuments that marks the city map of Rourkela.

Space chowk symbolizes the importance of steel and other materials to build the spaceships, missiles and rockets.

The location:

Sculpture is aptly placed at intersection where one road road leads to Rourkela airport.
