REUNIFICATION is a diverse collective of 9 recent graduates (2014/15) from 3 of Scotland’s Art Schools. However this is not the only thing they have in common as

the seeds of the collective were sown when the artists worked side by side in the HND Contemporary Art Practice studios of Edinburgh College Granton.

In their most recent exhibition “ETC…” opened last night at Edinburgh’s G4 Bunker, which is part of the Gayfield Creative Spaces project.

Coming hot on the heels of their successful show at the critically acclaimed Generator Projects space in Dundee this summer the current exhibition presents a variety of contemporary artworks including video, painting, sound work, performance, installation and sculpture which offer an insight into concerns around the passing of time.

In the roughly constructed subterranean spaces of the bunker history is brought forward into the present, challenging the idea of finite timelines. This creates the opportunity for dialogues with an audience, as they are encouraged to deepen their understandings of past cultures and history. New meanings are explored in overlooked materials, be they behaviors, spaces or ephemeral objects, that hold specific importance to their respective times in history and culture.

REUNIFICATION Collective are:

ETC… is open daily until Thursday 10^th Sept

This week it was the turn of Edinburgh College of Art to show off the hard work and creativity of their graduates at the 2015 Degree Show.

Once again there was a fantastic representation of Edinburgh College #CAPalumni work across the fine art disciplines of Painting, Sculpture and Intermedia. Congratulations to them all and we look forward to seeing what happens next after a well earned rest!
