Flying Figurehead near Swansea Marina
This sculpture was the winner of the Maritime Sculpture Competition in 1988. The competition was sponsored by the City of Swansea and J Sainsbury PLC. It is part of the development around the former South Docks and Half Tide Basin.
The statue is of a male and a female, who merge to create a cloak effect. The sculpture is intended to describe the sense of movement, suggestive of the prow of the boat.
