Abstract This study aims to statistically verify the pathways that impact public art. Through public art projects, it promotes communication among residents, enhances community values through resident participation and improves the social well-being of residents. A survey was conducted, three times during February through March, May through June, and September through October of 2020, on residents from 20 villages in Busan who participated in at least one public art project. Upon conducting empirical analysis, the results revealed that activist attitudes and resident participation attitudes had a positive effect on the socio-cultural, economic, and residential environment performances with regards to public art. Additionally, the socio-cultural and residential environment performances positively affected the sense of community and overall social well-being. While this study may have verified pathways that impact public art, current studies are limited to case studies and post-project questionnaire surveys.
