YORKSHIRE SCULPTURE PARK

I know it has been a while since my last post, but I have moved! I am now in sunny St Andrews studying Art History (however that has not stopped me sewing or bringing all my art junk/bits and bobs with me). The week before I came up here (Monday 12th) I went on a trip to the Yorkshire Sculpture Park, which was fantastic and well worth a visit if you have the time or are nearby. The exhibition by Jaume Plensa was brilliant and really made the day and visit for me. I love the way he bases his work on verse and literature and how, to him, sculpture should be interactive, something you experience and not simply look at. Be prepared for some walking, it is quite a way around the park- I don't think we made it to every single sculpture but we certainly saw the ones we wanted to. Anyway, here are the photos so that you can see for yourself!
