Tom Frost: The Wild Collection
– Garden GalleryAbout Tom Frost: The Wild Collection
South Wales-based illustrator Tom Frost took inspiration from YSP’s historic landscape and varied wildlife to create new work including limited edition screen prints, ceramics and homeware.
The Wild Collection highlighted the joy of getting out into nature, studying it, and collecting specimens to keep, enjoy and preserve. The Garden Gallery exhibition transported visitors to a biology classroom, or a naturalist’s study, with works such as old school charts, matchboxes containing foraged finds, collector’s cards and stamps.
Inspired by the Park’s infamous sheep, Frost created the limited edition screen-print Ram Brand, exclusively for YSP.
Yorkshire is blessed with an abundance of wildlife, but chances are you’ve not seen a large puffin nesting on our green hills before. This, however, was Tom Frost’s vision, so his latest commissioned project seeks to immerse you in nature

William Turnbull: Large Idol
Large Idol forms part of a series of ‘Idol’ sculptures which William Turnbull made over the course of several years. These minimal works take the human form as a starting point which is then simplified and refined, whilst maintaining a sense of figuration. The titles of these streamlined forms make reference to them perhaps being thought of as ancient gods and being worshipped for their power and beauty. - News
