Kielder: Skyspace

Kielder: Skyspace

The vast and remote forest that surrounds Kielder Reservoir is now home to an outstanding collection of sculpture developed by the Kielder Partnership.

James Turrell's 'Skyspace' is sited at Cat Cairn overlooking the reservoir. Visitors experience a unique optical sensation as they view the sky through the light balanced interior.
