Seven Short Sails
What is Seven Short Sails? Initiated by artist Pat Law, based in Heriot in the Scottish Borders, it is a creative chinese whispers...the starting point - 1 sailing boat, 7 short voyages and 7 artists. All in northern latitudes. There are cultural similarities and parallels between artists living at these latitudes; ways of living and seeing dictated by climate, daylight, geography and tradition, and this series of responses will unwittingly reflect those elements.
7 artists have responded to 7 sets of material which took the form of sketches, stories, paintings, photographs, conversations, and the outcome will be shown here. These responses will be passed onto another 7 artists and so on... for a total of 7 phases/50 artists.
