Seaview/Gracefield Sculpture
E Tu Awakairangi Hutt Public Art Trust is seeking support for the installation of a public art work.
The Lightwing sculpture will be an iconic and innovative marker for the Seaview/Gracefield area of Lower Hutt.
The sculpture is comprised of a series of “fin or feather” shapes, that stand over five metres tall. This work plays with form and light and will be installed on the Seaview/Gracefield roundabout.
This sculpture is designed by leading designer and artist Andrew Thomas in response to the special characteristics of the Seaview / Gracefield areas - its environment, history and contemporary role as a centre of industry, creativity, commerce and research.
The sculpture will be entirely made in Seaview/ Gracefield, showcasing the range and skills of businesses in the area.
There are still opportunities for local businesses and individuals to become partners in this exciting project.
The Trust has raised $230,000 towards the project with the support of the following partners:
Hutt City Council
MJH Engineering
Dulux
Workshop e
HJ Asmuss
Seaview Blasting
Titan Cranes
However a further $7,000 is still required to complete this project.
