Vitruvian Boy by Andy Scott Cumbernauld

"Children represent the future and Sanctuary's new-build developments are helping create the future of Cumbernauld.

"Vitruvian Boy is based on the Vitruvian Man sketch by Leonardo Da Vinci, who looked at the work of the famed architect Vitruvius which interprets the basics of scale and proportion.

"The architectural link has obvious connections with the town of Cumbernauld and its liveable aspirations. I hope residents agree Vitruvian Boy is a fitting addition to the town's public art."

Sanctuary Cumbernauld, a subsidiary of Sanctuary Group, is a not-for-profit organisation, providing more than 1750 rented homes for people in Cumbernauld.

Fran Jones, chairwoman of Sanctuary Cumbernauld, said: "Regeneration is about more than mere housing and Vitruvian Boy makes the Fleming Road development even more desirable.

"We are delighted Andy's excellent sculpture is on display."

The Cumbernauld commission is the second time that Sanctuary has employed Andy's talent.
