Reasons for Voyaging, by local sculptor Graham Bennett, is located at the main entrance to the Christchurch Art Gallery site. It is both a marker to the site and a welcome to visitors.
Consisting of an informal grouping of seven stainless steel poles of varying heights up to 13.2 metres, it was designed so that visitors can walk through, under and around it. Conveying a sense of arrival and departure, invitation and challenge, the work – as its title suggests – encourages us to consider the experiences and motivations of all visitors to New Zealand, including Māori and Polynesian voyagers, European settlers and recent migrants. #Architech #Architechure #Art #Boulevard #Building #Christchurch #Gallery #New_Zealand #Pivnice #Status #Worcester #ZNO
