Upane – Steuart Welch (2015)

Taupo

Steuart Welch makes finely engineered sculptures from corten steel. This sculpture looks big and heavy, but the shapes cut through the steel create an invitation to look through the holes and view beautiful framed views of Lake Taupo.

The word Upane is one repeated in the All Blacks haka, and means to step up.

Corten steel is a type of steel that  creates a naturally occurring self protecting rust coating.  It may look like a rust finish on this sculpture, but this rust like layer is actually protecting the surface and the sculptures integrity.

This sculpture is located on Lake Terrace, near the corner of Lake Terrace and Kaimanawa Street, Taupo, New Zealand.
