I have been watching the slow decay of the husk of the Toroa ferry at the end of the Western motorway, not realising the amount of work going on in its restoration below decks. The idea of resurrection and trying to keep alive what is good about our past is a theme of my current work. I fully restored the Toroa, filled it with all of the endangered natives of our land, both threatened now and in the future, as well as their precious cargo and set them on a journey to find a new home - the sea’s may be rough, the perils great, but it is my hope that they make it.
