About
Following her sell-out show Hand Me Downs in 2022, Annie Montgomerie will be back at Yorkshire Sculpture Park in the summer with a new exhibition Missies and Nippers.
Step into Montgomerie’s world of quiet emotion and vulnerability, with nostalgic detail, and sweetness of young, happy wonder and the ache of feeling different. This new exhibition will include cats, dogs, foxes, elephants and other animals, meticulously constructed by hand, their bodies made from vintage finds from the 1970s and 1980s, layered with retro patterned fabrics and faux furs.
Dressed in tiny frocks or trouser suits, they bear a ‘loved-to-death’ appearance, their postures and eyes quietly telling stories of hope, fragility and belonging.
All works will be for sale, with proceeds supporting YSP’s charitable work.
