This memorial pou pou was carved by George Vincent Edwards, master carver, of Ngai Tahu and Ngati Irakehu ancestry. The carving is worked in kauri, and is unique in that one side is carved in the traditional Maori style of the Ngati Kahungunu, whilst the other is carved in a European representational style. This reflects John Hayward's strong dedication to a consideration of the attitudes of both tangata whenua and pakeha to land and the environment and the sustainable use of these. He was largely responsible for the establishment of a Centre for Maori Studies at Lincoln. He was enormously influential in his dealings with the government, and government bodies concerned with issues of land use and regulation of this in New Zealand, culminating in the drafting of the Resource Management Act.Artwork CopyrightAll rights reservedArt CollectionLincoln University Art CollectionKeywordsMemorial | tohu maumaharaMāoriFigures | tāngataLincoln University history
