Richard Hollinshead's involvement with Yorkshire Sculpture Park has led to sculpture which comments on and questions some of our assumptions about what is 'constructed' and what is 'natural', and how we respond to the landscape.

Hollinshead's work speaks of the paradox that by demanding wider access to landscape we run the risk of destroying exactly those sights and feelings we expect to find there.
