We are excited to support National Museum Scotland, Edinburgh and National Museums NI, Belfast who are developing a collaborative exhibition, that will showcase up to 15 newly commissioned works of Craft. These commissions will create a dialogue around how Contemporary makers based in Scotland and Northern Ireland see their practice as part of a shared historical tradition of making, through the development of design styles, processes, techniques, and material exploration, as well as how artisans of the past continue to resonate with today’s makers.

 

The exhibition opens at NMS on 17 July 2027 to coincide with the Edinburgh Art Festival before then moving to NMNI in early 2028.
