Type: Landmark

A giant sculpture of a man and woman situated 300 yards out to sea off the coast of Northumberland at Newbiggin by the Sea.

Comprising two 5 metre tall bronze figures – a man and a woman - standing on the new breakwater and looking out to sea, this unique commission by the South East Northumberland Public Art & Design Initiative (INSPIRE), has been created by internationally renowned artist Sean Henry.

Couple is secured to a steel plinth and integrated into the breakwater so that, during high tides, it will give the impression of standing on the water’s surface.
