"Numbers" sculpture

Sculpture - Numbers

The sculpture is by artist Anton Parsons, who lives in Auckland but grew up and went to school in Palmerston North.

He has had extensive experience with large works in Wellington and Auckland as well as numerous works in public art collections. It is titled “Numbers” and is a joyful, celebratory piece made up of a series of stainless steel cubes joined in a loop with random numbers in sheet bronze riveted on.

The numbers could portray anything from secret codes to mathematical formulae to ordinary things like the first building blocks of a child’s learning with no particular intent asserted by the artist.
