Well it is hard to go wrong with a Gormley figure. The fact that is set outside a very human scale bungalow somehow humanizes, even domesticates the figure, which can look more heroic in grander settings. I haven't been at night, but I doubt the two spotlights really light it in any interesting way, and they do detract a bit from the overall impression of the piece.
