Exhibitions

Rooted in journey and narrative, Ryan’s practice thrives on stimulus – expeditions that demand preparation, attention, and immersion. Unleashed charts a bold arc across the Celtic fringes, from the stormy coasts of Brittany to Ireland’s ancient shorelines, and finally, home to Argyll. Along the way, friendships are rekindled, artistic challenges accepted, and new terrain embraced with characteristic vigour.

The Scottish Gallery is pleased to present Skinnrin, the first solo exhibition by Shetland-based watercolourist Peter Davis. Since 2013, Davis has worked full time from his studio in Silwick on Shetland’s westside, capturing the shifting interplay of sea, sky, and weather. Davis transforms the fleeting light and luminous compositions that speak of place, presence, and the quiet drama of the natural world.

This May, we continue our exploration of the beauty of the still life genre with an exhibition dedicated to objects that blend the functional with the sculptural. Objects often take on extraordinary significance through everyday use or by reflecting the world around us, shaping and defining our lives. We have brought together both familiar and new artists to the gallery in celebration of our commitment to outstanding craftsmanship.

The Infinite Bloom celebrates the beauty of growth, transformation, and the boundless possibilities and detail found in nature. Misun Won lives and works in Edinburgh. Originally from Korea, her highly articulate jewellery draws inspiration from the traditional wrapping cloth Jogakbo – where fragments of fabric are pieced together to form complex, harmonious patterns.
