Art in the Garden

Exhibition: Ric Warren

in association with Edinburgh Art Festival

Our art in the garden this year is by recent graduate of Glasgow School of Art, Ric Warren, who will exhibit a series of sculptural works in Charlotte Square Gardens which respond to the theme of climate change.

Ric Warren's intriguing structures and models, made using a variety of materials, attempt to mimic the language of architecture, or intervene with it, to create buildings that hold space but do not offer it. His work is informed by an interest in the physical, political, cultural and environmental impact of urban change on our habitat. His other exhibitions include an outdoor installation for Big in Falkirk Arts Festival (in collaboration with Seattle-based video artists Sierra Stinson) and creating a permanent wall drawing for 'The Bloom! Project' in Brussels. For more information visit Ric Warren's website www.ricwarren.blogspot.com.
