Yukihiro Akama: Basho no Kankaku – A Sense of Place 場所の感覚
Architectural technician-turned-sculptor Yukihiro Akama uses wood to carve miniature houses that look as if they’re from the pages of a fairytale. More than 50 examples (some of which are just four centimetres tall) will be displayed as part of his solo exhibition at Yorkshire Sculpture Park, along with a selection of his drawings and prints.
From 9 March – 30 June at Yorkshire Sculpture Park, West Bretton
The Nature of Things
Craftspeople collaborate with the great outdoors for this exhibition at Sarah Myerscough Gallery, which explores how natural materials and processes can be used to create dynamic works. Expect weathered urns from Adi Toch, twisted sand vessels from Gareth Neal, craggy clay sculptures from Aneta Regel, and more.
Until 28 March at Sarah Myerscough Gallery, London
Jeffrey Gibson: no simple word for time
Just before he becomes the first Indigenous artist to represent the USA at the Venice Biennale, Jeffrey Gibson is hosting his first ever UK solo exhibition this month at Norwich's Sainsbury Centre. The show will be centred by a huge installation made out of historic crafted objects from North America’s Indigenous cultures, intended to stir debate about how these items are displayed and perceived within cultural institutions.
Until 4 August at the Sainsbury Centre, Norwich
