Pukeko Porphyrio melanotus
Capturing the comical grace and dramatic colouration of this popular New Zealand wetlands dweller, O’Keefe’s ode to the pukeko clearly reveals the artist’s accomplished affection for our native birds. All the steel is recycled and the iridescent blue achieved using discarded modern automotive panels. Recovered steel and automotive panels 33x45x15cm -

The Two Villains - Turdus and Kelly
The common blackbird or manu pango is New Zealand’s most widespread and easily seen bird species. Familiar to everyone as the mischevious immigrant who loves to mess up our nicely mulched garden edges. Introduced in the 1860’s he’s of similar vintage to the Kelly axe head. Repurposed steel and antique forestry axe 29x20x17cm
