'ArtCycle' Project - Artist walk + talk with Audrey Grant

Forth Valley Art Beat

Join artist Audrey Grant for a walk around Bothkennar Pools to visit her new site specific installation 'Inscriptions in Arcadia'.

‘Inscriptions in Arcadia‘ (Audrey Grant) is a series of site-specific artworks situated in the beautiful and protected landscape around the Bothkennar Pools, near Skinflats. Visitors are invited to walk on easily accessible paths through this real landscape with its pine trees and lagoons, its reedbeds and fields, and imagine another – the semi-mythical land of Arcadia. The artworks at Bothkennar have been created using a combination of found and made objects (a manhole cover, clay bricks, a flag, waymarker signs etc). They have been placed at points on the walk where some trace of the area’s rich industrial and cultural past still exists, be that 17th century farming or 19th century heavy industry.These simple, but strategically placed, objects have been further transformed through inscriptions from classical mythology evoking the Greco Roman Gods of the underworld, the pastoral and the sea. Also the lyric poetry of Sappho, the Xth Muse, who wrote about love, longing and the beauties of the natural world.Join Audrey for a guided walk and talk around the 12 different sites of her site-specific artworks which encompass &#x27;Arcadia&#x27;. The walk starts at the entrance to Bothkennar Pools by the side of River Carron, near to Skinflats.View the &#x27;ArtCycle&#x27; website for more detailed info:https://forthvalleyartbeat.com/artcycle-project/
