School Trip

Start to the new 3D Caro project - Yorkshire sculpture park and Hepworth gallery







For a school trip the teachers organised for us to go to the Yorkshire sculpture park and Hepworth gallery to do some research on Caro and look at some of his work up close. This was really helpful for me to see his work at the start of the project because some things photos just cant do justice for.

I thought the Caro exhibition at the sculpture park was extremely interesting I really enjoyed looking at all his art work NOT on paper but face to face. I didn't expect to like Caro's work as much as I did but I really liked his bold use of colour and shapes. I was inspires by Caro's abstract approach as that is the kind of art I like looking at. My favourite Caro pieces were his paper sculptures which I thought looked brilliant! I also loved some of his sketches even though they cant class as sculptures.

Then we went to the Hepworth. I thought the Hepworth was extremely good and I really enjoyed the atmosphere There wasn't as much Caro at the Hepworth however, I really enjoyed the trip and happened to be inspired by a few other artists work. It was SO helpful going on this trip and taking the pictures and ideas I needed for my work. I got more of a feel on Caro's work and how he presents it which will help me throughout this project.
