“Occupied” is an exhibition featuring work by 3 of ContemporaryArtETC’s current students. The exhibition will feature new and recent work produced during their first year on the ground breaking course at Edinburgh’s Telford College.
The work covers a range of themes including; journey, protection and the notion of celebrity. Alongside these will be new works by the artists inspired by the current economic climate and associated difficulties of occupation, appropriation and negotiation.
Alan Holligan Curriculum Leader for the Contemporay Art Practice Course at Telford said “I am delighted that the students have shown such initiative and determination to get their work and ideas out in the public domain during their summer break. It takes a great deal of confidence and organisational skill to pull of an entirely self initiated project like this and it is testiment to the callibre of student and to their learnig over the last year.”
The art works will occupy the un-let retail space for 1 week between 18th-22nd of August at the height of the Edinburgh Festival season. The work will cover a broad range of disciplines including, drawing, painting, sculpture and film.

Sight / Site is an exhibition of new works by year 2 participants of the HND Contemporary Art course at Edinburgh’s Telford College. The exhibition deals with the dual themes of visual impairment & location in response to the current exhibition at the Royal Botanical Gardens in Edinburgh by artist Rosita MacKenzies; who is herself blind. The work has not been developed specifically for those with visual impairment but rather deals with the individual concerns of the artists. Taking the Royal Botanical Gardens as their source / site of research the work explores and attempts to tackle some of the apparent contradictions between visual art and visual impairment.
Sight / Site is open on Wednesday 4th – Friday 6th February from 10am – 5:30pm
This event will coincide with the opening of the Richard Demarco Archive also at Edinburgh’s Telford College.
