LR Vandy's Dynamic Rope Sculptures Transform Yorkshire's Weston Gallery With Maritime Inspirations

British artist LR Vandy has transformed the Weston Gallery at Yorkshire Sculpture Park with "Rise," an exhibition of dynamic rope sculptures that climb walls, loop through pulleys, and coil across the floor. The centerpiece, "A Call to Dance," is a monumental maypole whose braided strands cascade from a metal ring. Vandy, who works from her studio at the historic Chatham Dockyard, uses maritime fibers that evoke ships, cargo, and hard labor. The sculptures appear caught mid-action, hovering between tension and release, with over 30 kilometers of rope used in the installation, much of it evolved onsite through collaboration with technicians.

Gala Porras-Kim: Future spaces replicate earlier spaces

Gala Porras-Kim presents her first exhibition at kurimanzutto in Mexico City, titled "Future spaces replicate earlier spaces," running from April 11 to June 13, 2026. The show brings together works that examine how museums and conservation institutions reclassify objects removed from their original contexts, using reconstruction and resituating to explore their spatial, material, and temporal conditions. Central to the exhibition is the installation "The motion of an alluvial record" (2024), which recreates the humid marshland atmosphere of the Yucatán Peninsula inside the gallery, contrasting with the controlled climates of museums. Other works include drawings replicating wall decorations from the Techinantitla complex in Teotihuacan, which were fragmented and sold on the black market, and graphite drawings of objects by artist Brígido Lara, whose "original interpretations" of Totonac ritual clay objects were mistakenly catalogued as Pre-Hispanic artifacts in major museums.
