Metal Bird - Huia

The pretty, round Chatham Island Black Robin is a tiny miracle. In the early 80s it was the world’s rarest bird – the population was down to a single egg-laying female. While the Black Robin is still desperately rare, the population now sits at 250-300 birds. We can’t sing the praises of this lovely songbird enough.

Created by industrial designer Phil Walters, began as a guerrilla street art project in New Zealand’s North Island. Walters’ steel artworks, inspired by his love for street art and native birdlife, celebrate the idea that art can be found everywhere, not just in galleries.
