We are pleased to introduce 'Benjamin' by Ben Foster to the Sculpture Trail.

Originally conceived as a self-portrait, the work draws on idealised classical form while reflecting on the space between outward appearance and inner experience.

Fabricated in marine-grade aluminium and finished with automotive paint, Benjamin reflects Foster’s precise, reductive approach to sculpture, where form is distilled to its essential presence.

Installed within the Nikau grove, the work sits in quiet dialogue with its surroundings.
Come and visit him out on the trail.

New on the Trail | 'Te Wai Abacus', 2024 — Wanda Gillespie

Interactive, playful and layered with meaning, 'Te Wai Abacus' invites visitors to engage directly with the work and the landscape beyond it.

Part of Wanda Gillespie’s ongoing Abacus series, the sculpture explores ideas of natural systems, value, and environmental fragility. Flowing forms reference waterways across Aotearoa, reflecting on the impact of perpetual-growth economies and the vulnerability of our rivers.

Visitors are invited to move the beads and look through the work, allowing the surrounding landscape to become part of the artwork itself.

“Through these abacus works I’m interested in ideas of natural systems, value, and the environmental impacts of the perpetual-growth economies we are part of.”- Wanda Gillespie

Now in the Foyer Gallery | 'Liberty Fragment' by Nicholas Duval-Smith⁠

For those who know Nicholas Duval-Smith through his larger sculptural works on the Trail, 'Liberty Fragment' offers a rare opportunity to experience and collect his work on a more intimate scale.⁠
⁠
Created from part of the original hanging bell in 'Wake-up Call (a vibration from within)' and referencing the famously cracked Liberty Bell, this bronze and gold work continues a sculptural language developed over more than two decades - exploring movement, resonance and play.⁠
⁠
A work designed to live with - bringing contemporary sculpture into everyday spaces.⁠
⁠
Limited edition of 10 (this work 2/10).

Thinking about starting an art collection?

These newly arrived editions by Terry Stringer offer an opportunity to own a work by one of New Zealand's leading contemporary artists in an accessible format.

Night and Day (Ex Voto) rewards curiosity. Crafted from pressed copper and oil paint, the work reveals different imagery as it is viewed from alternate angles, inviting the viewer to slow down, look again, and discover something new.

Drawing on the tradition of the ex voto—an offering of gratitude or devotion—Stringer creates a work that shifts with perspective, revealing new meanings from every angle.

Edition of 10 | Third Edition
8 available

Now on view in the Brick Bay Foyer, or visit online https://www.brickbay.co.nz/collections/small-sculpture/products/terry-stringer-night-and-day
