A GIANT flower designed to light up by catching energy from the wind will soon shine as a beacon on the new look Widnes Waterfront.
Plans to build a 50ft high illuminated flower out of galvanised metal, with 120 petals were approved by Halton councillors on Monday evening.
Architect Anna Liu, aged 43, who won a competition to design the public art sculpture, spoke exclusively to the World this week.

“When you do something quite bold on a big scale it does attract criticism but it also provokes discussion and makes people want to go and see it.”

The sculpture will be erected on rough pasture land beside a metal walkway and observation deck that looks over the Mersey estuary.
