Christchurch Sculpture Festival

4-19 October 2025

The Arts Centre, 2 Worcester Blvd, Christchurch 8140

I’m thrilled to have been invited again for this exhibition displayed in the wonderful restored Great Hall at the Arts Centre.

Combining my Amazons and birds, I will have 3 bird women.

Bird women are legendary hybrid creatures appearing in myths and folktales in many cultures.

Often seen as portraying evil, contrasting stories however show her in protective roles or associate her with music and love

My take on this is that the macho world feels threatened by mentally powerful women and therefore see her as ugly or evil.

I am grateful to all the galleries that stock my work, especially Kura and Vessel in Wellington who have supported me for years.
