Foregrounding the practices of ten emerging Scottish-based artists, this exhibition will survey some of the key concerns confronted by contemporary creative practice. This includes works that examine relations between colonisation and damaged indigenous cultures – pertaining to land rights, ecological systems and the power of dreams; the politics of movement; systems of care; the world of commodities trading and explorations of queer relationships and histories. The second exhibition by Talbot Rice Residents, it will feature artists from the final two cohorts of the programme. Supported by the Freelands Artist Programme, an incredible nationwide project that has supported 80 artists across the UK, propelling them to new heights.

Talbot Rice Residents exhibition is supported by Edinburgh College of Art and Freelands Foundation.
