Craig Easton - SIXTEEN
6.30pm Thursday 19th August
Livestreamed through Facebook*
Join us for this online artist talk with award winning photographer Craig Easton as he discusses his exhibition SIXTEEN, on show at The Scottish Maritime Museum until the 30th of August. Craig conceived of this project following his engagement with first-time voters in the 2014 Scottish independence referendum.
The ensuing portraits and the sixteen-year-olds candid testimonies reveal whom and what they really care about, and as well as exploring landscape and language in the Scottish Islands, it also looks at how social background, gender, ethnicity, health, education, location etc. all influence what young people think they can achieve in life.
This event is part of Everything Flows, a specially curated coastal exhibition trail, programmed by Street Level Photoworks in partnership with regional venues and supported by EventScotland as part of the Year of Coasts and Waters 20/21.
