Floating outdoor sculptures captivate audiences by blending art with the dynamic beauty of water. Among the most famous is "The Floating Piers" by Christo and Jeanne-Claude, a temporary installation that allowed visitors to walk on water via a golden pathway. Another iconic piece is "Maman" by Louise Bourgeois, a giant spider sculpture often displayed near water, creating a haunting reflection.

Anish Kapoor's "Sky Mirror," though not always floating, has been installed on water to amplify its reflective illusion. Meanwhile, "The Kelpies" in Scotland, towering horse-head sculptures, appear to emerge from canals, blending myth with modernity. These masterpieces redefine public spaces, proving that art and nature can harmonize in unforgettable ways.
