Part of the Jaume Plensa Study Day

James Turrell has designed Skyspaces around the world; simple chambers which use seating and an aperture in the ceiling to create a space for viewers to observe the sky and reflect. These films have been made by Yorkshire Quaker Arts Projects. They portray an experience in one Skyspace at Yorkshire Sculpture Park near Wakefield, and explore links with art, light and Quakerism.

Rebecca Chesney was artist in residence at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park (YSP) in 2010. She used her time there to research the bees and other wildlife on the estate, with a view to producing work for an exhibition at the Park's galleries to be held in April 2011. In conversation with Helen Pheby, one of the curators at YSP, Rebecca discusses in this film what her residency has taught her about bees and the landscape of the Park, thus bringing together two realms (art and estate management) that have in the past remained separate.
