The Wellington region's largest sculpture - made from 20 tonnes of steel - has been unveiled in Lower Hutt.
Lightwing, a 6m-high, 10m-wide structure created by businesses in the industrial area of Seaview, has been installed at the Seaview roundabout as a way of gaining recognition for the under appreciated suburb.
The $250,000 sculpture was unveiled on Tuesday night.
