The Hand that Nurtures
By Llew Summers
Wanaka, New Zealand
The contrast between the solidity and weight of this solid concrete sculpture and the tenderness of feeling which it portrays makes this work special. It symbolises notions of nurturing, safety and protection as well as friendship, openness and honesty.
Commissioned by the Aspiring Arts & Culture Trust and unveiled March 10, 2005.
