Small Projects Winner 2024

Location

Archipals

Artist

Zack Ritchie

Mercury Tower stands as a striking modern architectural statement, reshaping Malta’s skyline. To infuse this contemporary landmark with local identity, the Archipals sculpture collection was introduced throughout its commercial district. These five bronze figures, including the Luzzu boat and the Knight of St. John, playfully reimagine Maltese heritage. More than mere decoration, Archipals encourages public interaction, inviting both locals and visitors to engage directly with Malta’s rich past. By bridging modern design with cultural roots, Archipals transforms Mercury Tower into a dynamic public space where history, commerce, and community converge.
