5 July - 3 September 2022 Imbrication

Frances Priest with Sam Healy Motifs from the realm of neoclassical architecture dance and evolve on screen, tracing a journey from the ancient, analogue and physical, to the modern, digital and abstract. Craft techniques such as tiling, mosaic, marquetry, weave and stitch all originated as mathematical pattern structures and here are brought full circle, ‘re-encoded’ as algorithms. francespriest.co.uk

6 September - 29 October 2022 Magna Marina

Donna Leishman A contemporary play on the ‘Carta Marina,’ the marine map created in 1532 by the Swedish cartographer Olaus Magnus. The original charts Scandinavia, the North Sea and Scottish Coast, numerous sea beasts, alongside the real eddies and currents of the North Sea. Using Scottish-Nordic Insular Art, Leishman has creatively reimagined the beauty and the imagined unknowns off the Aberdeenshire coast. www.6amhoover.com
