Book your tickets to YSP this Easter to see two new exhibitions opening on the same day (5 April), by two exceptional female artists – Laura Ellen Bacon and Felicity Aylieff.

In the Chapel, discover Derbyshire-based Laura Ellen Bacon's exceptional immersive sculptural installation Into Being, created from natural materials. Weave your way through the building, to view a piece woven for the space in willow – a sustainable and warm material that Laura uses to create a surprising and compelling sensory experience. 

Walk into and around the work, feel yourself become part of it and be absorbed into the materials that have been built from scratch in the Chapel.

Watch this space for information about an accompanying series of events where you can explore the themes, processes and making of this impressive work.

Exhibition supported by Hignell Gallery.

Exhibition Accessibility

The exhibition is located in The Chapel, which is a converted 18th-century building. It is an approximately 10-minute walk from the main Visitor Centre through the country park, down a steep sloping hill. Off-road mobility scooters are available to hire from YSP Centre free of charge.

Access to the Chapel is via steps or a grassed ramp at the main entrance. The ground floor has flat access throughout, with stone flagstones and a metal grate running the length of the gallery. The upper balcony is accessed by a steep, sharply turning staircase which may not be suitable to visitors with mobility issues.

There is bench seating available on the ground floor, and pew seating on the balcony. There are no public toilet facilities at the Chapel.
