Join us for a guided walk through of the exhibition and learn about the stories behind the artworks on display.

British artist Sophie Ryder is renowned for her large-scale open-air sculptures of mystical hybrid creatures. Among her cast of characters, the Lady Hare features often, alone or paired with her male counterpart, the Minotaur. Best known for her sculptures made of twisted wire, the artist was encouraged to work in bronze by her friend and mentor Elisabeth Frink and has also employed plaster, sheet metal and marble.

This solo exhibition offers an intimate glimpse into Ryder’s studio practice including a selection of smaller-scale sculptures alongside drawings and prints of her favoured subjects. The installation Temple to the 200 Rabbits – guaranteed to be a sure-fire success with our youngest visitors – commands a gallery of its own.
