Barbara Hepworth is my major inspiration this week. Deciding to become a sculptor at age 15, I am in awe of her certainty, dedication and physical strength to create so many incredible pieces of work.


Watch a clip of “ Barbara Hepworth - Figures in a Landscape “ (courtesy of the British Film Institute) below.

It is a charming, poetic portrait of the sculptor and her Cornwall work. Narrated by Poet Laureate Cecil Day Lewis with a score by Priaulx Rainier, it’s a visual and audial delight, sure to inspire.
