A decommissioned oil rig will be transformed into an interactive art installation as part of a project to change perceptions about sustainability.
The 450-tonne structure, which spent the last three decades in the North Sea, has been delivered to Weston-super-Mare beach ahead of being lifted onto a base at the Tropicana arts and music venue in the town in the coming days.
Once the "See Monster" project is completed, the 35-metre high platform will feature a waterfall and seated amphitheatre along with a 6,000 piece art installation to give it "scales", and will be covered in grass, plants and trees.
The installation will be open for two months from August to October, before the artworks are installed around the town and rig itself deconstructed and recycled.
