# Public Nouns Sculpture at Noyo Gimbal View (Indonesia)

First of all, I sincerely apologize for the mistake in the previous proposal. I understand this caused inconvenience, as everyone needs to vote again on this proposal.
I made a small edit by adding a Nouns barcode to the Public Nouns Sculpture at Noyo Gimbal View proposal.
Once again, I apologize for the inconvenience. 🙏

### Proof of Work & Credibility
I'm Deguma, working on Proposal #814 (Nouns Dragon Booth), which is still active today.

I am the creator of the Nouns Milk Box sculpture, and the creator of the 8 meter high Noyo Gimbal statue.

Prototype of this sculpture is already completed

Important note: maintenance costs for repainting and other things will be borne by Noyo Gimbal View.

## Conclusion
This project brings Nouns beyond the digital space and into a high-traffic public environment, creating long-term, physical visibility for the Nouns brand in Indonesia.

With proven execution, an active public location, and a culturally relevant character choice, this proposal delivers a permanent public good aligned with Nouns DAO values.

Outcome: EXECUTED
