The family of the 'Back To Black' star, who died last July after a long battle with alcohol and substance abuse, are in talks with staff at the Roundhouse where the proposed statue would be located.
Amy's father Mitch Winehouse said that the family had initially wanted to place a memorial bench close to her Camden Square home, reported Sun Online.
"Amy was in love with Camden but for us, it is a place that we associate with both heartbreak and love, because we loved Amy dearly. We wanted to have a bench in her memory outside her house in Camden Square, but there are so many hoops you have to jump through to do that," he said.
Mitch's second wife Jane confirmed that the family were now considering placing a statue outside the Chalk Farm Road venue where the singer last performed.
"We're in very early discussions. It wouldn't go up till at least 2013, but for those who loved Amy's music and all those who knew her around Camden, it'll be something very special to remember her by," Jane said.
Mitch described his vision of the statue while at a project launch at the London Irish Centre in Camden Square earlier this week.
"It will be bronze, life size, and on the first-floor balcony next to the Roundhouse bar. We'd like to have Amy leaning over the balcony and looking, and perhaps pointing, towards Camden Town from Chalk Farm Road."
