“My left hand is my thinking hand. The right is only a motor hand. This holds the hammer. The left hand, the thinking hand, must be relaxed, sensitive.” Barbara Hepworth
Today is #LeftHandDay & sculptor Hepworth was left-handed.
See the bronze cast at the Barbara Hepworth Museum & Sculpture Garden.
Summer time in the Sculpture Garden...🌞
Wander through lush greenery, under bright blue skies, with seagulls overhead and sunlight casting shifting shadows across Barbara Hepworth’s incredible bronzes🌿

We are transporting you today via Paul Nash's painting Blue House on the Shore, c.1930–1, which was painted on his visit to the south of France in 1930 💙🩵
You can see work by Nash at Tate St Ives alongside other key artists associated with St Ives and Cornwall.
Loved the #LilianeLijn exhibition @tatestives.bsky.social
Kinetic sculpture, drawing & paintings, inspired by physics, feminism, science fiction.
Video is of installation ‘Conjunction of Opposites.’
Born in US in 1939, living in London since 60’s & still working.
What an amazing mind!

Liliane Lijn’s work has had a special place in my heart ever since my University of Warwick undergraduate days. The comprehensive new study of her career to date at @tatestives.bsky.social is just magical - koans and much else besides - very highly recommended if you’re in Cornwall this summer.
