A three metre high tower made from Takaka marble removed from the Beehive and a bronze sculpture of a tui atop a giant acorn - they're among the more than 200 works in the annual NZ Sculpture OnShore.
The event is a fundraiser for Women's Refuge, whose services organisers say is in even more demand because of the pandemic.
Lynn Freeman catches up with two of the artists, Fiona Garlick and Chauncey Flay.
