The Sculpture Park was developed as a millennium project by volunteer group “Keep Te Awamutu Beautiful Society”.
This sculpture sits at the entrance of the park.
Six hinuera stone pillars erected within the roadside council berm in six locations down Shakespear Street.
All pillars are inscribed with various well-known poet quotes by Shakespear.
Multiple sized cement pods/bowls used as a creative way to move water down the hill.
Each pod/bowl is designed to capture the water for a moment before cascading down to the next level.
Artist Iain Trousdell designed the sculpture in 1989 and was commissioned by the Cambridge Borough Council.
The stone is polished and left natural. It represents Pirongia Maunga and the patupaiarehe children of the mist.
The sculpture is located in the centre of the Te Ngahere Reserve located in Pirongia.
This artwork was gifted to Pirongia by the Pirongia Craft Day Committee in 2008, commemorating 30 years of the annual craft day.
