Opening hours: Wednesday - Sunday, 10am - 5pm
Katie Paterson's project Afterlife will be exhibited at Collective Edinburgh this summer as part of Edinburgh Art Festival.
The work recreates ancient amulets, carved from materials sourced from disappearing landscapes and fragile ecosystems. Stones from islands threatened by rising sea levels, glacial remnants and materials from fire-ravaged forest are transformed into objects that serve as reflections on loss, connection and renewal. The project explores themes of deep time, geology and environmental change, prompting audiences to consider the legacies left for future generations.
