Like his other sculpture Kaitiaki which sits nearby, this seven metre tall sculpture by Fred Graham marks the original foreshore of Auckland harbour.   The form of the sculpture is based  stern (taurapa) and prow (tauihu) , helping us remember that the waka of iwi (tribe) Ngati Poua kept thier canoes in this area.

This sculpture is located on the corner of Queen and Swanson Streets, Auckland CBD, Auckland, New Zealand.
