Tides Changing, Changing Tides • An SSA Online Exhibition
Scotland has 10,250 miles of stunning coastline. We are never, at any one point, far from the sea, lochs, canals or rivers. Our coasts and waters have always inspired artists, often eliciting responses that question our environmental sustainability and the impact on our precious natural resources. Tides Changing | Changing Tides focussed on the effects we are having on our coasts and waters and the harsh truths that are unfolding before us.
