The fountain features a sculpture called Hawaiian Net Mender - Ka Mea Kui Upena (Person Who Stitches the Net) made in 1989 by Charles Watson. It depicts a seated figure of a male with a net draped across his outstretched legs. His arms extend over the net, as he is in the act of mending it. He holds a tool in his proper right hand. The figure sits on a natural boulder which is placed in a man-made pool. There are waterfalls behind the figure as part of a landscaped fountain.
