Highland Whispers (2020)
A series of wall-based, sculptural works created in 2020 as a response to each of the five senses as part of the Highland Whispers project alongside fellow artists Alex Boyd, Pádraig Ó’ Tuama, Anna Raven and Nick Turner. The collective formed in lockdown and created a game of consequences, Highland Whispers, in which the stimulus for each ‘whisper’ was the personal creative response of one of the five artists to one of the five senses - hearing, sight, smell, taste, touch. Each stimulus was sent to the next artist to create their response - the echo - in their own, often very different, medium. Each artist then passed their work to another until, over a period of five weeks, a total of 25 pieces of work had been created - five stimuli and 20 echoes. Despite taking inspiration from the same sense, each piece of work differed hugely to the next, echoing how we all experience the world in our own unique way.
