A Wellington Sculpture

I came upon these pou whenua, by Maori sculptor, Ra Vincent, when I was walking in front of Parliament on my way to the NZ Archives building last week. I was in a hurry, hence my short-cut of photographing the sculpture notes rather than noting them in my book. But the message is the same and sometimes it's quite nice to see the actual plaque.

I think they make a strong and visually interesting statement on the patch of land in front of the Beehive on one side and the Old Government Buildings on the other.
