Saw this in June. Fantastic (as expected). The chestnut(?) stalks pinned and hanging in space was simply mesmerizing. Rest of the sculpture park was equally lovely (as much for the landscape as the art; there were huge fields of poppies). I have some photos which I must dig out and put online.
The stalks are amazing, particularly because they reveal themselves so slowly. Due to the light it only gradually becomes apparent that they are pinned with thorns and are entirely self-suspending. Changes in the light also switch it between the impression of 2D and 3D.
It is also interesting to see a piece to intricate and fragile sited next to such bigger, imposing pieces.
