Inspired by medieval Books of Hours, this multimedia exhibition features prints, sculpture, sound installation and animation, reflecting on how we experience, order and preserve time.
Robert Powell is an Edinburgh-based visual artist whose multidisciplinary practice focuses on printmaking, but extends to sculpture, video, and text. A graduate of Edinburgh College of Art and longstanding studio member of Edinburgh Printmakers, Robert Powell has exhibited widely at home as well as throughout Europe, North America and the Far East. In his career thus far he has been the recipient of several awards including the 2008 John Watson Award, the 2011 Benno Schotz Award from the RSA and the 2013 SSA Engramme Printmaking Exchange prize.
This is one of two exhibitions Edinburgh Printmakers is showcasing as part of the 2025 Edinburgh Art Festival.
Hall of Hours, supported by New Media Scotland’s Alt-w Fund, is a new body of work that expands on the themes contained within a previous work, Chronoscope, an animated clock co-commissioned by Aberdeen Performing Arts and New Media Scotland’s Alt-w Fund with investment from Creative Scotland in 2022. Robert Powell and Edinburgh Printmakers have continued to collaborate with Mark Daniels at New Media Scotland to realise this new exhibition.
