Seeking site for art work

The Aspiring Arts and Culture Trust is looking for the perfect spot in Wanaka for a new sculpture.

The art work was set up for a preliminary site test at the Ardmore St park, ahead of a formal decision about where it will eventually be placed on the lakefront green.

The sculpture - a work by artist Rebecca Rose - was bought by the trust for $30,000 in May.

The original art work consisted of five 2m-tall steel sculptures made from cut steel patterns welded together and was previously on display at Rippon Vineyard's sculpture trail.

The trust bought three of the cone-like pieces and each one would be permanently installed at Bridgeman Green, with internal base lights, which would project patterns on to nearby surfaces, trust liaison officer Carrick Jones said.
