The Hepworth

As one of my aims for 2017 was to visit that of the Yorkshire sculpture triangle, the Hepworth was visited. Compared to that of Yorkshire sculpture Park, I prefered the sculptures present and the layouts in which they were expressed. The layout of the exhibitions were largely minimal, with little text being used. The building itself was breathtaking, with large windows exhibiting the surroundings of such a prominent piece of architecture. 

This display was one of my favourites being developed by that of Anthea Hamilton, an artist in which I have followed closely for the previous couple of years. 

The above sculpture was part of Hamilton's exhibition, and was one of my favourites from the Hepworth. Bright in colour the design is highly eyecatching, and draws the consumer's attention from across the room. The shiny plastic is irresistible to touch, forcing the consumer to be involved with the design.  

Quotes were strategically placed around the exhibitions in order to give a greater insight into the work present. The above image depicts one of my favourite quotes of the day, as I felt it expressed an element of sculpture in which isn't largely highlighted within mainstream sculpture design.

Again an engaging sculpture, bubbles have been used within this sculpture to ensure that the sculptures design is malleable, and constantly changes. This allows for multiple different user experiences.

Pennys were used in this instance in order to develop a sculpture in which expresses the universe, maybe this design literally shows that the world does revolve around money. 

This display was somewhat impactful to myself, as you were able to stitch a personal item to the piece. Rather than a piece of art, I would even go as far to suggest that this piece is actually a time capsule, in which will give a greater insight into 2017, to people centuries from now. Scratch cards, train tickets and love letters were all personal items in which were sewn onto this piece.
