Game On!

There’s a new artwork in Aotea Square. You can see it until October 5. It’s called Checkmate. It’s made up of 14 very tall chess pieces.

Here are some pictures from different angles.

I don’t understand chess, and I have never played it, but even if I did understand the game and wanted to play, these pieces are too big. Some of them are 11 metres tall!

If you can’t go and see them in person, you can watch a short video here.
