To celebrate the town Newton Aycliffe's industrial heritage, there is going to be a new sculpture called 'In our Image' which will tower over Netwons business park, built early next year.
Artist who designed the sculpture; Joseph Hiller
The sculpture designed by artist Joseph Hiller is 16 metres high, just 4 metres shorter than the Angel of the North.
I'm not keen on the design of this sculpture in Newton, it looks too manly and grumpy and i'm not sure what it's meant to represent; a giant face?!
On the other hand, Angel of the North by artist Anthony Gormley is a great sculpture towering over the A1 with the use of such an iconic symbol; an angel. Perhaps i may change my mind once it's built next year...i'm guessing i won't though!
