This charity auction rocks!

Our octogenarian Dad is still a working painter, sculptor, and all-round visual artist. Back in his “stoner” days he made this piece during a 1988 sculptors’ symposium organized by well known sculptor Llew Summers. The completed sculptures were displayed around Canterbury and beyond. Dad’s piece was installed on a business property in Mandeville Street here in Christchurch. Out the back and somewhat out of view, it has sat almost forgotten since.

This artwork would look much better enhancing a park or garden. As it depicts a mother sheltering her child our decision is that all proceeds will go to nationwide charity Perinatal Depression and Anxiety Aotearoa or PADA NZ.

Your friends will be “bouldered” over by this sculpt-chur bro. “Carve” out some time to bid on this “rocktion”.

To visit sculpture go to Home Ideas at 37 Mandeville St. The car park is on the right of the business coming in from the street, and the sculpture is very obvious there.

Free delivery within Christchurch but you must arrange your own delivery if outside Christchurch. Dimensions are 2m high, 1200mm wide, 1m deep.
