The sculptor of an artwork, set to be erected in Co Clare, said it has already achieved its goal of publicity for the town of Ennistymon.
Clare County Council has paused plans to erect the statue of a Púca in the town after local criticism.
The council proposed placing the 6ft-tall interpretive art piece on a plinth as part of tourism and visitor measures to encourage more people to stay there.
However following local objections that it was grotesque and scary , as well as a criticism by the parish priest, the work has been put on hold.
