Victoria Ferrand Scott
Victoria Ferrand Scott originally studied History of Art and became a Fine Art Valuer before achieving a first class BA in Sculpture (2002), and an MA in Fine Art (2004). Her sculpture practice is exploratory, informed by a 2010-2011 Leverhulme Trust residency in Civil Engineering at Leeds University experimenting with fluid concrete and flexible forming. Elected a member of the Royal Society of Sculptors in 2009 she has exhibited in London at the RSS and the Royal Academy and also at the Royal West of England Academy and exhibition venues in the north.
Her abstract sculptures develop through investigating fluid materials (particularly concrete, plaster, clay and bronze) and processes. She is interested in harnessing natural forces of flow, elasticity and expansion, allowing the material to dictate its own form, without having absolute control over the final outcome. Recent works have played with polarities by combining concrete (often seen as a brutal construction material) with silky stretching fabrics tailored into moulds. The concrete flows and bulges, straining at the seams, demonstrating its capacity for creating sensual forms and recording tactile surfaces. The resulting minimalist sculptures retain the memory of their production together with the suggestion of simple life forms and processes. Responding to different historical locations from cathedrals to mills, landscape to interiors, has also inspired site specific sculptural assemblages, often incorporating found objects, old and new.

Jaume Plensa: Wilsis
Wilsis appears to be deep in thought or dreaming. Her eyes are closed and she is inward-looking and self-contained, remote from the present moment and the beauty of the surrounding scenery. Although monumental in size at over 7 metres high, this sculpture depicts a normal girl, rather than immortalising a traditionally extraordinary or powerful person. - Art Outdoors

Elisabeth Frink: First Man
Elisabeth Frink was interested in human and animal forms. She used the male figure to explore the complexities of humanity, exposing both strength and vulnerability, as with First Man. - Art Outdoors

Serge Spitzer: Untitled
The sculpture creates, encloses and protects its own interior, which can be glimpsed through the spaces held open by rubber pads. Spitzer chose to reflect upon the character and history of the location for his sculpture and to encourage active looking and questioning. It is not immediately clear if the beam emerges from, or supports, the quarry face. When seen from different angles, the sculpture creates different senses of stability and balance, of open and closed spaces. - News
