Chaos – Installation by 4
London Sculptor Paul Bonomini
Old Parcels Office Artspace, Scarborough Railway Station, until Sunday October 30, daily from 11am to 4pm The sight of the gleaming giant steel sculpture hanging in mid-air like a threatening cloud is amazing and it’s the sound of the ticking clocks, crashing of ice, peals of thunder, crackling of burning fires and torrential rain that creates the sense of foreboding and imminent climatic disaster. Whether you like contemporary art or not, this is an experience not to be missed. – Sally Gorman
