Artist Rob Ryan has transformed the Visitor Centre at Yorkshire Sculpture Park this winter as his imaginative paper cuts and screen prints are on display until 21 February 2010.
Famed for his detailed hand-cutting of delicate papers into intricate patterns, often revealing whimsical stories or poetic phrases, Ryan has decorated the shop window at YSP. Framed one-off paper cuts and limited edition screen prints, exclusive to YSP, are on display throughout the Centre.
Decorated vinyl panels by Ryan also adorn the windows in the Visitor Centre, and a brochure designed by the artist featuring all the work on display accompanies the exhibition. A range of items are available in the YSP Shop, including an exclusive laser cut Christmas card.

'Our most intimate understanding of three-dimensional form comes from our own and other people's bodies. When we look around the world we see the outside of something and wonder what might be inside. I try to tap into this, implying from the modulations of a surface what may be happening inside - a delicate balancing act. The illusion has to be consistent, just like a fictional world. It's a parallel world. The illusion I'm talking about has to understand itself and have a metaphorical relevance to our world'. Peter Randall-Page
This extensive exhibition brings together new and recent sculpture and works on paper by one of Britain's foremost artists. Peter Randall-Page has used the large spaces of the Underground Gallery as a catalyst and platform for an ambitious range of work which has extended his practice and given expression to ideas developed over many years. New pieces include a striking, innovative series of wall works in fired clay based on geometry and symmetry, and two monumental Kilkenny limestone carvings.
All aspects of Randall-Page's practice are represented in this exhibition, including his working processes through the display of maquettes and models in the Project Space. The Garden Gallery features small-scale objects and works on paper, with the lawns around the Underground Gallery framing a wonderful range of large-scale sculptures.
Randall-Page's work is informed at every turn by a lifelong study of organic form. Nature's myriad complexities are a source of ongoing fascination to him, from the underlying mathematical principles that drive life and growth to the incredible patterns and forms found in the natural world. An intelligent and astute artist, Randall-Page references music, ancient artefacts, science, mathematics, geometry, botany; he has an insatiable appetite for knowledge and a longing to investigate the minutiae of the world around him.
