A Signature Arrival: Peter Busby’s Monumental Sculpture
The Awe-Inspiring, 12-Foot-Tall Sculpture Takes Its Place at Regency Parc
This week marked a defining moment for Regency Parc with the delivery and installation of a monumental stainless steel sculpture that will serve as the signature art piece of the community’s Resort Deck. Rising 12 feet tall, the work immediately signals the caliber, scale, and intentionality behind the artistic experiences being curated for future residents.
Crafted entirely from marine-grade stainless steel, the sculpture is artfully woven into the form of a Right Whale—one of the ocean’s most majestic marine mammals, known for migration routes that pass close to Florida’s east coast. Both powerful and elegant, the piece reflects a reverence for the sea and a commitment to integrating meaningful, large-scale art into everyday living environments.
The sculpture was created by acclaimed artist Peter Busby, whose distinctive approach transforms stainless steel into lifelike forms inspired by animals and marine life. Working from the Connecticut countryside, Busby has developed a national reputation for his ability to blend industrial materials with organic movement, resulting in works that feel both substantial and surprisingly fluid. His sculptures can be found in private collections, public installations, and notable developments across the United States.
For Armando Codina, this visionary behind Regency Parc, the sea has long held deep personal significance, making this piece especially meaningful. The Right Whale sculpture symbolizes his enduring connection to the ocean and his admiration for the extraordinary creatures that inhabit it. In commissioning Busby, Mr. Codina sought an artist whose craftsmanship and vision could authentically translate that passion into a work that residents would encounter not as decoration, but as an experience.
The arrival and installation of the sculpture offered a glimpse into the scale of art residents can expect throughout Regency Parc. Designed as a lifestyle destination, the community blends refined residential living with thoughtfully curated amenities. From the Resort Deck and pool experience to meticulously crafted interiors, Regency Parc is being shaped as an environment where design, art, and daily life intersect seamlessly.
More than a focal point, the Right Whale sculpture sets the tone for what is to come—demonstrating that art at Regency Parc is a foundational element of the community’s identity. It underscores a philosophy that residents deserve to live among works that inspire, invite reflection, and elevate shared spaces.
As the sculpture now rests in its permanent home overlooking the Resort Deck, it stands as both a symbol and a promise: that Regency Parc will offer residents not only unique, one-of-a-kind residences, but a living experience enriched by art of uncommon scale, quality, and meaning.
