Earth journeys main page

Slipping from dappled forest light,
boots crunching along the shore.
Promise of a storm as wind whips up waves against a violet sky.
Eyes suddenly taken by surprise at the rippled markings of a pebble,
smooth and cold.
Scooped up for luck and safekeeping in a pocket.
Found much later it is a symbol of elements combined; a tangible memory.
These are the earth journeys some of us make.

Earth Journeys showcases the work of three contemporary Scottish
artists who work with the landscape making use of the materials and
processes of nature. Their methods favour observation, collecting and
forms of manipulation that reflect the land in ways which are both
suggestive and challenging.
The experiences of places visited or journeys made are expressed in paint, collage and metalwork and engender a sense of place and the timelessness of past and present. United by their empathy for nature this family of artists; two sisters and a brother bring together their stories which reveal striking similarities in their underlying concerns.
