Search Sculpture, located in Vancouver, British Columbia, showcases the artwork of J. Seward Johnson, Jr. This public art installation is part of the City of Vancouver's Public Art Registry, situated at Denman & Georgia Street in Devonian Harbour Park. The sculpture, crafted in bronze, portrays a woman engrossed in searching her purse, capturing a moment of everyday life with intricate detail.

J. Seward Johnson, Jr.'s artistic process involves starting with a clay model to capture the figure's pose before refining it with a live model to sculpt the face and body. The sculpture undergoes several stages of casting in materials like plaster, wax, and bronze, with fabric elements added to enhance realism. The result is a lifelike representation that invites viewers to appreciate the artistry and craftsmanship behind the creation.
