We've loved looking back through lots of visitor feedback from #AFragileCorrespondence, and we're excited to hear what audiences at home think when it comes to @VADundee in 2024!

[Scotland + Venice @scotlandvenice]

"The intent of this exhibition was to start a dialogue between places that are facing similar issues and create opportunities for exchange of learning in the face of our rapidly changing environments."

Artwork spotlight 💡 ‘Soil Horizons’ by Neil McGuire and Andy Summers for @ArchiFringe.

Soil Horizons seeks to recognise the contemporary condition of Ravenscraig as a place of authenticity and value, as a resurgent natural landscape full of wildlife, memory, and stories.

[Scotland + Venice @scotlandvenice]

By acknowledging and drawing attention to the grain of the land, above and below its horizon, and by exploring models of common stewardship and use, we question the methods and values which inform real-estate, ownership, and ‘regeneration’.

Artwork spotlight 💡 ‘Make-Do’ by @_ism_magazine.

How do we learn to make do with what we have? What creativity forms and what resilience is bred when parameters are placed in front of us?

[Scotland + Venice @scotlandvenice]

In Make-Do, means of creating and innovating with less are celebrated, by reinforcing the importance of vernacularism to honour the land and harmonise with it.

Artwork spotlight 💡 'Working Title for a Working Model’ by @slash_other & made by Mahbuba Choudhury.
An experimental landscape model inspired by environments of Loch Ness, particularly micro-scapes on forest floors & tree branches layered with moss, lichen & other forms of life.

[Scotland + Venice @scotlandvenice]

The model has been created with materials & tools used in textile design practice that allow for plasticity and an easy reconfiguration. The ground can be altered & layered with information, creating a working model that functions in time as much as in space.
