AN artist from Barnsley has achieved something most people in her field could only dream of - designing her own display at Yorkshire Sculpture Park.

Liz West grew up in Barnsley and at age 19 left the town to study at the Glasgow School of Art.

Now, the 39-year-old has returned to Yorkshire as her exhibition - titled Our Colour Reflection, 2016 - finds a home at the park in West Bretton from today until January 5.

Made up of hundreds of mirrored disks in 15 colours, each at different heights that emit natural and artificial life, the sensory experience will be an unmissable feature at the park’s chapel.

Liz said: “Yorkshire Sculpture Park has always been a part of my life in many different ways.

“Exhibiting at the park feels like a pivotal moment and like I have come full circle.

“Living locally, I was taken to YSP as a child back in the 80s and 90s - I have seen the park evolve over the decades and new spaces open, I worked in the shops and as a gallery invigilator during my holidays from art school in the 2000s and have brought my own family and friends to visit as an adult.

“I am beyond delighted to be exhibiting my work Our Colour Reflection in the chapel this winter.

“I look forward to seeing visitors reactions to the coloured reflections and changing light in the space.”
