PIONEER PETS Kupe's dog, Joseph Banks's greyhound and Captain Cook's goat. Chuck Joseph 2013
"A set of three ceramic animals, all visitors to Aotearoa during the earliest days of settlement; Kupe's dog, Joseph Banks's greyhound and Captain Cook's goat named Folly. These animals are constucted in the Staffordshire figurine style; clay figures which celebrate historical events. The group of three creates a ceramic monument, silent and curious witnesses to extraordinary explorations." Chuck Joseph ©
