The art of Maungawhau Station
Step in and you're greeted by Parawhenuamea - a waterwall by artist Tessa Harris (Ngāi Tai ki Tāmaki), named for the atua of fresh water.
Water flows over basalt and 53 lava-glass triangles, one for every volcanic cone in Tāmaki Makaurau, crafted with glass artist Sofia Athineou in a tāniko weave pattern. Together they map the city's maunga and tell the story of water moving through the kōhatu beneath Maungawhau. A fitting welcome for every traveller, guest and commuter.
The story continues above and outside too - Harris's copper Te Ipu-a-Mataaho ceiling greets you at the entrance, while Graham Tipene and Reuben Kirkwood's work marks the bridges and ventilation building around the station.
