Centres on the ‘octagonal pool’ of the Waitemata Harbour. A gazing ball, an infinity pool, an endless sea, an organic compass, a contrapuntal spring, a glorious parrot, a bounded harbour – the octagonal pool might reflect where we’ve been to, or where we are going. This is a good place to be marooned.
