Damien Hirst: The Martyr – Saint Bartholomew
The Martyr – Saint Bartholomew depicts the martyred saint who was one of the Twelve Apostles of Jesus. In Hirst’s version he holds scissors and a scalpel to suggest that his torture is self-inflicted. - Art Outdoors
Vanessa da Silva: Muamba Posy
Muamba Posy was first exhibited on the moors of Penistone Hill in Haworth, West Yorkshire. Its large, organic forms and vivid colours are inspired by the Hill’s ever changing cycles of nature, where life has continuously adapted over time. - Art Outdoors
Auke de Vries: The Watchtower
First displayed at YSP in 2000, The Watchtower was made as a response to the artist's observations of trees, and speaks directly to this place. - Art Outdoors
Bharti Kher: The fallow
The fallow belongs to an ongoing series of works by the artist called the Intermediaries, that all begin life as golu figurines from Southern India.
