The artworks, The Thistle, The Teasel and Serenity were inspired by conversations with garden staff, volunteers and Sight Scotland Veterans while I was the resident artist at Linburn walled garden in the summer of 2024. This project was funded by the West Lothian ARC project in collaboration of the Cyrenians and Sight Scotland Veterans. West Lothian ARC is a project by Firefly Arts and is part of the Culture Collective Programme.
