INTERVENTIONS AT HOPETOUN

TREE PILLOW

in the bedroom antechamber this pillow reflects the tree imagery of the room’s verdure tapestries. It imagines dreams entwined by forest roots.

Interventions at Hopetoun House, Domestic Space

STORAGE SPACE

in the Charter Room of this Stately House a short video replaces one of the antique storage boxes which once held family deeds. In our present world digital storage ‘in the cloud’ now backs up and preserves our data.

Interventions at Hopetoun was part of a Heartwood Artists exhibition at Hopetoun House, Edinburgh.
