Beach sculpture Kaikoura

beach sculpture Kaikoura - by Gabrielle Young

I'm fascinated by some of the large sculptures that dot the New Zealand landscape.
I don't recall there being a plaque to describe this work (usually I photograph the plaques separately so I have a record of the work to explain to others) but will hunt out some details and put them on here later.

As far as I do know, they are carved out of macrocapa stumps with a chainsaw...

Thanks to "The Stone Guy", this is what he says...

That sculpture was by Gabrielle Young.
She's done a lot of funky work around Kaikoura.
