About Scatter - An Exhibition of Works by Richard Dalgleish

Listed Under Exhibitions Events / Arts and Crafts Events / Photography Events

Scatter is a deeply personal and emotional exploration of the spaces between life and death inspired by Dalgleish's daughter's eighteen-month journey through cancer and his own parallel journey.

Dalgleish describes his art practice as "rooted in a desire to capture and represent a sense of loss and to unravel our use of memory close to the universal constant at the end of life". This project is the culmination of a BA Honours Degree in Photography with the Open College of the Arts.

In addition to the usual gallery open times, on Saturday 12th at 1.30pm Richard will be talking about the exhibition, and answering questions about both his work and its inspiration.

Free tickets can be reserved via the Eventbrite link.
