Installed on the 1st May 2001, 'Wave' is a twisting, 121ft-tall, moving spiral, which took two years to create and was inspired by Islamic calligraphy and saplings blowing in the wind. The tip of the sculpture, which is not powered by any motors, can sway up to 20ft in the wind and returns to its central position by way of a 10 tonne lead counterweight.
