A graduate of Gray's School of Art who explores her Muslim heritage through abstract painting.
Nickolai Globe's high fired stoneware bowls and vessel forms become more geological and carry with them a deep reflection of the terrain of the Hebrides. Incorporating glass and raw minerals into his work, they literally embody the landscape.

I studied Illustration at DOJCA and qualified with a 2:1 in ‘93. After a 20 year break whilst I worked as a rep in the gift trade covering Scotland and having a family. I was lucky enough to get the opportunity to take up a Studio at Talla na Mara and moved to Harris with my family in November 2016.
Inspired by the Western Isles (mainly Uist and Benbecula) during family holidays my artwork is varied and influenced by nature, wildlife, pattern and detail.
I love working with the colour and detail of the images that I feel make the Western Isles such a unique and spectacular place to be.
I work mainly with pen and ink and watercolour with a departure to charcoal and pastel for looser pieces.

Mary Morrison is from the Isle of Harris and much of her work draws from the space, light and elemental qualities which are unique to the islands. Her work suggests liminal spaces, edges, tidal lines – always shifting. She evokes a sense of place and natural forms through the use of materials which include oil, pigment and beeswax. Fluid paint effects often combine with graphic elements and annotation relating to mapping, measuring and music, creating an additional visual language and tension within the paintings.
“I am continually inspired by relationships between the written word – poetry in particular – and image, and previous paintings are responses to works by Iain Crichton Smith, Kenneth White, and the Sufi poet, Rumi for example. I am interested in Kenneth White’s theory of Geopoetics which he defines as being concerned, fundamentally, with a relationship to the earth and with the opening of a world”.
Mary is a Professional Member of the SSA (Society of Scottish Artists), has exhibited across the UK and in the US, and is represented in Scotland by &Gallery, Edinburgh.
Mary is based in Kyles Scalpay, Harris.
