Tickets FREE via Eventbrite: booking essential. Through a series of conversations and pertormances, participants will explore ‘missing layers’, considering how culture is shaped not only by what remains, but also by what has been lost.

Contributing artists include : Sam Ainsley, @ainsleysam Annie Cattrell, @anniecattrell Ilana halperin, @geologicnotes Gareth Fisher, @gareth_f Yevheniia Sydorenko @eugenia_sido Paul Stallan, @stallanbrand Dave Sherry, @davidhughsherry Louise Welsh, @louisewelsh550 Suky Best, @sukybestKenny Hunter, @realkennyhunter Chris Dolan, @chrismariodolan Katie Houston, @katie___houston Edward Summerton, @edwardsummerton Shauna McMullan, @shauna.mcmullan Leena Namari, @leenanammari Gair Dunlop, @gair_dunlop Joseph De Lappe, @josephdelappe Mary Bourne, @m_bournesculptor Joanna Kessel, @joannakessel Laura Leuzzi, @82lale Peter McCaughey, @petermccaughey Gordon Gibb, @gordongibb1 Jude Barber, @judebarber100 Stephen Skrynka, @stephenskrynka Ranald MacInnes, @ranaldmacinnes Julie Laing, @j_a_laing Leila Galloway, @leilagalloway Rory Hamilton @everythingiknow ‘Unconformity’ is a geological phenomenon revealing a missing span of millions of years between rock layers. (discovered in 1787 by James Hutton at Siccar Point, Berwickshire, Scotland) This concept serves as a powerful metaphor for cultural loss: the ways in which histories can be fragmented, obscured or deliberately erased.

‘In Conversation: James Geurts and Dr. Aaron Gronstal’ 11.5.26 from 14.00 until 15.00 Hawthorne Lecture Theatre Royal Scottish Academy Edinburgh ‘Please join James Geurts, an invited artist for the curated element ‘IN TIME’ for the RSA 200 Annual, in conversation with Dr Aaron Gronstal, astrobiologist and science communicator with NASA’s Astrobiology Program. James and Aaron share a remarkable overlap in research of geology and life origins from distinct perspectives. Both have worked at the Flinders Ranges of South Australia, among the oldest deserts in the world, and both have studied Ediacaran fossils. Join them for what promises to be a uniquely valuable exchange between art and science. IN TIME This significant year for the RSA also marks the tricentenary of the birth of James Hutton (1726-1797), ‘the father of modern geology’. Reflecting on our philosophical and physical foundations (with the building constructed on ancient volcanic rock), Annie Cattrell’s curation will explore the RSA’s rich layered development over time.’ RSA website Please see the link to tickets in my Linktree. As convenor, this year, for the @royal_scottish_academy Annual I have invited artists Sam Ainsley, Martin Creed, James Geurts, Cathie Pilkington and Stephen Shrynka to take part in this bicentennial exhibition. They will be showing alongside Royal Scottish Academicians’ and those who have been selected from the Open submission. Hope to see you at the ‘in conversation’ and also in the galleries to see the exhibition! @james.geurts @ainsleysam #martincreed @cathiepilkington @stephenskrynka #art #science #edinburgh #nasa

‘Transformation’ (I &II) 2016 In preparation for a current project, I have been reflecting on two digital time/space sculptures (images I &2) I made with the help of dance artists Andrea Buckley and Charlie Morrissey @charliemorrissey (image 3). In 2016, we travelled to Rome to see and film the ‘Apollo and Daphne’ sculpture by Bernini. I have always been fascinated by this sculpture since visiting in 2000 while Ace Helen Chadwick Fellow based @britishschoolatrome . Later, in the gardens of the Villa Borghese, Andrea and Charlie improvised their response to this controversial sculpture. Back in the UK we went to Southampton University to work in their motion capture centre. Andrea and Charlie wore motion capture suits which digitally captured their improvised movement in time and space. Special thanks to Frances Scott, Marius Kwint and Marina Wallace who all contributed greatly in many ways. Supported by the Henry Moore Foundation. #roma #scuplture #drawing #dance #bernini

‘Cosmos, the art of observing Space’ Curated by artist @ioneparkin for the @rwabristol will end on 19.4.26. This timely (#artemisii) and expansive exhibition includes work by contemporary artists (slide 3), historical drawings, specimens and artefacts many on loan from @royalastrosoc in London. I have two artworks included ‘Being There’ 300cms x 40cms x 20cms, gilded Jesmonite (shown in images 1 and 2) and ‘Everything is Connected’ which is a pencil and ink drawing. There have been many visitors so far, plus articles and reviews written about different aspects of this broad ranging exhibition. Please see my linktree for one written by David Trigg for Studio International @studiointernational1893 This autumn ‘Cosmos, the art of observing Space’ will tour to @abdnartmuseums in Scotland and will be open until spring 2027. #moon #cosmos #nasa #art

Angus Miller @geowalks.scot holding a print of one of the ‘lost drawings’ by John Clerk of Eldin at Glen Tilt this weekend. These drawings were originally produced to illustrate James Hutton’s ‘The Theory of the Earth’. They were never included in this publication because they were considered lost. Thankfully, they were found last century and copies can be bought from Angus Miller. All proceeds go towards the Hutton tricentenary celebrations and the upkeep of a new monument/landmark at Siccar Point. This is due to be completed by 3.6.26 which is generally considered to be Hutton’s birthday. ‘…no vestige of a beginning, no prospect of an end’ J.H. The last film shows snow falling that evening outside Glen Tilt Lodge. #drawing #diagram #geology #deeptime #water

International Women’s Day 2026. I have thought of many women and girls I would have liked to have posted about yesterday on #internationalwomensday . Far too many to even begin to celebrate and acknowledge. Hence the tardiness of this post. However, in the spirit of ‘why limit ourselves as women and the majority of the world’s population’ …to only one day of celebration a year….. I have chosen @giselepelicotofficiel as a beacon of fortitude, bravery and vision. #letshamechangesides #female #women
