what material is the angel of the north made from
Angel of the North Completed in 1998, it is a steel sculpture of an angel, 20 metres (66 ft) tall, with wings measuring 54 metres (177 ft) across.[1] The wings do not stand straight sideways, but are angled 3.5 degrees forward; Gormley did this to create "a sense of embrace".[2] The angel like much of Gormley's other work is based on a cast of his body.[3]
