“Cape Kiwi” pays homage to an iconic Hawke's Bay landscape, Cape Kidnappers, which is also home to Cape Sanctuary, Aotearoa's largest privately-owned conservation project. This sculpture celebrates Hawke's Bay and the multitude of natural beauty it has to offer, especially the feeling of the ocean as it crashes towards land in the golden light of the sun.

Isobel hopes “Cape Kiwi” sparks an appreciation for this beautiful pocket of Aotearoa and our stunning national bird, and that people are reminded of the ongoing efforts being made to protect kiwi and other native species.
