Tigh an Quay, 100 x 100cm, acrylic on canvas The Bearings exhibition is on the verge of being open at the Ceilidh Place in Ullapool until 31st August!  For a preview of the new work on show see the pages titled Land, Tables + Chairs, and Public.  Inspired largely by the island of Tanera Mor and its human history, the show looks at the places and objects we orientate ourselves around, our connection with the land being mediated by the give and take of nature, time and the human need for home.
