Nicola Turner's Pale Wool Installation Crawls Through Yorkshire Sculpture Park Chapel

Nicola Turner's solo exhibition 'Time's Scythe' features monumental textile forms made from recycled wool and horsehair that appear to crawl through an 18th-century chapel at Yorkshire Sculpture Park. The artist hand-stitches materials inside mesh to create bulging, knotted forms with clipper- and knife-footed tendrils that spill from upper apertures and slither around the building's exterior. This marks Turner's first large-scale installation using pale wool, creating what the gallery describes as a different energy from her darker, more melancholic sculptures. The exhibition continues through September 27 in Wakefield. Visitors can also see LR Vandy's provocative exhibition 'Rise' at the same location through September. Turner is known for contorted textile installations that heave and surge from architectural structures and public spaces.
