Chantry Chapel Artwalk 2022
28th September
Yorkshire Sculpture Park (YSP) displays a collaborative quilt depicting life stories by textile artist Andi Walker in the 14th century Chantry Chapel.
This is the first opportunity to view the large-scale Stitched Stories quilt created by Andi Walker. The artist held a special drop-in weekly session this summer as part of the On Queer Ground exhibition, part of the Summer of Love. Participants would spend time sharing their life story with Walker who then translated marks made during the conversation from paper to fabric.
Taking inspiration from the current exhibition Robert Indiana: Sculpture 1958–2018, Summer of Love was a series of events and projects that celebrated human relationships, understanding and love between people. Elements of the Summer of Love programme focused on LGBTQIA+ artists and considered how different and nuanced aspects of queer identity are expressed and represented in a contemporary context.
The artist and YSP team will be onsite all evening to discuss the work and futures exhibitions and events at the Park.
