What happens when a group of artists spends five days on a remote, abandoned island with no electricity?
Salt and Hearth brings together the work of seven artists following a creative residency on the island of Stroma. Living simply, they cooked on an old kitchen stove, shared stories by candlelight, explored the island’s landscape, and responded through drawing, painting, printmaking and mixed media.
Inspired by salt, weather, memory, and the enduring presence of the women who once called Stroma home, each artist offers a unique perspective on this remarkable place while reflecting on a shared experience of creativity, community and island life.
Featuring work by Aileen Paton, Caroline Swan, Shelagh Swanson, Jacqui Higgs, Elizabeth Henderson, Sandie Beck and Nichola Beckett.
