Please come and view the work of our latest Guest Artist, throughout the month of May. Working from her studio near Tadcaster in North Yorkshire, Victoria Ferrand Scott’s work is often abstract, exploring forms of indeterminable identity which seem to have their own inner life, open to diverse interpretation. She likes to retain a certain mystery as to the origins of the pieces.

She is drawn to working with materials of fluid origin such as concrete, plaster, clay, wax and bronze which when poured or thrown, retain their own inner character. The sculptures are abstract but with echoes ranging from human anatomy to nonsensical mechanical vessels.

Victoria has strong connections to Yorkshire, having studied at Leeds College of Art and Bretton College. Elected a Member of the Royal Society of Sculptors in 2009, She has been an artist in education for two decades at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park.
