Like Sharon's sculpture of a double Koru with Paua Shell, if you sculpt in stone you can now add your carvings to this gallery. Tell us about yourself, plus the story about your works of art.

It will be interesting to see carvings from people from all over the world that have a passion for stone sculpture.

Stone sculptures from Papanui High School

The student's work is a reflection of their own thoughts and feelings. They all have a desired result that is completely individual and is independent from the others, so their personal art sculptures end up being unique pieces of art.
