The answer is statute. The two words are commonly used interchangeably meaning either one of them would be correct when using it in a sentence. In fact, the words sculpture and statue are synonyms meaning they are similar in meaning.
SCULPTURE DEFINITION: make or represent (a form) by carving, casting, or other shaping techniques.
STATUE DEFINITION: a carved or cast figure of a person or animal, especially one that is life-size or larger.
