A Brilliant Exhibition at The YSP

 The exhibition is the Wish Post by Mr Finch and is showing at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park near Wakefield.  It runs until the 23rd of September and is a must for anyone interested in dolls or textiles.
Mr Finch is a bit of a hero of mine, I love his work and his attitude to life.

The exhibition itself is magical, we shared the space with a couple of primary school classes and the little ones were stunned into silence by the space.  That made the atmosphere even more special.

There are moles, rabbits, hedgehogs and even rats resplendant in sumptuous costumes but for me it was the mice, lots of tiny mice looking wonderful.  There is a book of the exhibition available from the YSP shop if you cannot make it or it is too far, that is lovely also with lots of photos and an outline of the story of wishes breathed into letters for the badger postmen.  Had a great time, highly recommended.
