The work on the right, by Bon Suter, is to do with wind and water; a journey through stone and new life. The sculpture on the left is an Easter Island head, which has been comissioned.

Stone sculptures in the sand

A growing exhibition of limestone sculptures by the South New Brighton sand dunes has become a fascinating focal point for residents in the BurwoodPegasus ward and visitors.
The large sculptures are the work of local sculptor Bon Suter, invited sculptors and students.

When the works are finished they will be for sale. In the meantime they have transformed South Brighton Beach Park, just off Marine Parade, into an Easter Islandlike setting.
"The vision is that it will keep expanding and become a huge sculpture garden," says Bon.

Local people watch the sculptures take shape and visitors come to see the open-air exhibition, which is supported by the BurwoodPegasus Community Board.
