His public art installations are widespread, featuring "Cloud Gate" in Chicago and the "Orbit" sculpture created for the 2012 London Olympics. Additionally, Kapoor's 110m-long "Temenos" stands in Middlesborough.
More recently, in 2025, he partnered with Greenpeace for "Butchered," an installation on a Shell oil rig in the North Sea, protesting fossil fuels.
