If you've visited The Square at West Beach Parks, you might have noticed the incredible sculpture created by talented Kaurna/Ngarrindjeri artist Allan Sumner. This stunning Blue-Ringed Octopus, named Paitya Marawiti--meaning "Dangerous Fingers"--is as striking as its name suggests! Allan has also designed and crafted the story poles that grace each entrance to the space.
