Join the artists Anne Bevan and Mary Bourne for an informal exhibition tour of 'Shimmering' as part of the RSA200 programme.

For RSA 200 Inverness Museum & Art Gallery will host an exhibition by RSA Academicians Anne Bevan and Mary Bourne. Each have connections to the ecology of specific places in the north of Scotland, and their new work will link to a poetic, subjective view of the sea.

Anne Bevan’s work explores the relationship between place and environmental change, particularly in connection to her home in Orkney. Her current project involves a creative exploration of the past, present and future situation of marine energy. Working with marine scientists, engineers and geologists, she is looking at tides and wave formations, along with hidden things and stories from the sea; underwater forms are explored through casting, constructing and moving image.

Moray based Mary Bourne works predominantly in carved natural stone, reflecting on humanity’s relationship with the environment through themes of subjectivity, the passage of time and change. This new work is inspired by her late father’s ornithological research, and looks at how science and emotion come together to drive our need to conserve Scotland's wild coastal fringes.

There is no charge for this event, but donations are welcomed.
