Hepworth Wakefield

Due to open in Spring 2011, The Hepworth Wakefield will be one of the largest and finest exhibition spaces outside London.
Designed by award winning architect David Chipperfield, it will exhibit works from the National collection of British modern and contemporary art and will show for the first time a unique collection of works by Wakefield born sculptor Barbara Hepworth.

I first approached the Hepworth in 2008 and was given permission to make a photographic record of the development of the site and the construction of the building from that time to the present day.
Being the longest project I have undertaken so far, my intention is to continue my work until the building of The Hepworth is complete and ready for its opening to the public.
