ANNA MACLEOD, REACH SCOTLAND RESIDENT

We are delighted to welcome Anna Macleod to ESW for her REACH Scotland Residency. During her residency, Anna wishes to develop a research and sculpture making project as an edition of her series of works ‘Water Conversations’, The Water of Leith is of interest to Anna as a way to talk about the redemptive qualities of water in both its physical and metaphysical forms.

Talks

STUDIO CONVERSATION WITH YOTAM SIVAN

I’m interested in how meaning forms organically through symbols and through appropriation.
