Description: Paul Dibble, 2010. In the south west corner of The Square, facing the roundabout opposite the Square Edge Building, Paul Dibble's Ghost of the Huia is a tribute to the memory of the extinct huia. A unique native bird of New Zealand, the last confirmed sighting of a live huia was in the Tararua ranges in 1907. The sculpture was installed in this central location for public enjoyment by Dibble Art Studio and Zimmerman Art Gallery. The huia is made of bronze, and the base of the sculpture is made from Corten Steel.
