Been wondering how to fill that large empty space in your office lobby? Look no further.

Artist Costas Theoharidis is desperately seeking any interested parties who would like to display his piece of artwork, after Toyota’s headquarters in Melbourne aren’t able to keep it on display anymore.

The sculpture, a steel globe measuring two metres wide, has been on display at the art space in the building’s lobby for about two months, but Costa has been told it will need to be moved in the next couple of days to make room for more artwork.

A representative of the Toyota head office told Neos Kosmos that no artist’s work is permanently exhibited.

“It’s one of 50 exhibited in our gallery show,” Toyota’s representative said.

Each piece of artwork is exhibited for three months, after which if the artwork hasn’t been sold, it will go directly back to the artist.

Now Costa is facing the prospect of destroying the artwork if he can’t find a place to house it or raise enough funds to put it in storage.

“I’ve been to everyone,” he says of his desperate search to find the globe a home.

“I’ve been to state government, I’ve tried to contact multinationals, airlines, we went to hotels, we went to Westfield, all the shopping centres, the buildings in the city, Federation Square.

“They’re just ‘we love it, but sorry’.”

Costas is at odds at what he’ll do when the deadline to remove the sculpture on March 8 comes.

He spent around 15 years building the structure, precision-cutting around 750 intricately handcrafted pieces that fit within the steel work, and painting the pieces with such detail that they mirror the earth’s topography.

“I wanted it in public for people to appreciate,” he says.

“I built it for people to really remember that the world is a beautiful place.”

He’s offering to give the artwork to an interested party for free if they would be able to display it in its full glory or, if worse comes to worse, would talk to someone who would be able to offer secure storage.

The globe, weighing about 600kg, is very versatile and can be suspended or can sit in a stand.
