Rebecca Collins - Paintings from Antarctica
Resulting from a trip to Antarctica, for her first show at The Scottish Gallery Rebecca Collins has produced a series of paintings of immense beauty depicting ice forms of beguiling complexity.
Stephen Bird - Ceramics
Bird’s work combines influences from English figure and slipware traditions with those from paintings and artefacts culled from his extensive travels. His use of words, collage and found objects results in powerful, multi-dimensional images which reflect on the global, transcultural nature of myths and ceramic archetypes.
Campell Sandilands - Echoes of Wisdom
This work is very much influenced by nature and the artist’s spiritual path through life. He has also taken Lao Tzu’s 2,500 year old book, the Tao Te Ching, as a starting point and sees each work as contemplation on aspects of these ancient passages of wisdom.
Italian Jewellery
A showcase of some of the finest contemporary jewellers from Italy.
