Nickolai Globe
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.

Joceline Hildrey
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
Mary Morrison is from the Isle of Harris, and her work is concerned with landscape, mapping and identity.
Where works have titles referring to specific locations, the intention is to draw on personal connections to these places in order to explore wider themes. Her intention is not to render the topography of a landscape but rather to explore in a more abstracted way the relationship between the individual and the landscape that has shaped them, something you carry with you – a ‘geography of the mind’.
She aims to combine a sense of place in her work with annotation – variously suggesting mapping, measuring and music. Grid references, staves and tide tables are recurring motifs, balanced against fluid paint effects. She is continually inspired by relationships between the written word and image, with paintings responding to works by Kenneth White, and the Sufi poet, Rumi for example.
Mary is based at WASPS Studios in Selkirk, and has exhibited across the UK and recently in the US.
