About Nick Crowe
In 2001, YSP commissioned a new exhibition, presenting a rare opportunity to see the work of talented contemporary artist Nick Crowe.
In the Bothy Gallery, 12 flip charts displayed Crowe’s drawings. Each chart combined a graph representing one month’s financial trading on the Nasdaq financial index, with a landscape. The Nasdaq is concerned with technology stocks and trades taking place via a computer and telecommunications network.
This pairing of landscape with the world of commerce creates a timely and thought-provoking reflection on our contemporary world.

Roger Hiorns: Seizure
In 2008 Roger Hiorns transformed an empty council flat in Southwark, London into Seizure, a sparkling blue world of copper sulphate crystals. The work was created using 75,000 litres of liquid copper sulphate, which was pumped into the former dwelling to create a strangely beautiful and somewhat menacing crystalline growth on the walls, floor, ceiling and even the bath of the abandoned flat.
