SPG is an action research organisation working across Scotland to promote sustainable working in the arts; to give access to the arts to many more people and to find ways for artists to have more financially sustainable careers. Find out more about SPG here Using the work King of Kings by Agnes Jones as the centrepiece to the project, we will move the sculptures across different locations, host organisations and businesses.
We will hold sculpture making workshops inspired by these sculptures, and engage with the public to capture opinions and thoughts about public sculpture in Gala. We will engage with the public here on our website, and through several public consultation events, where we will take the sculptures into the streets to meet passers by and have a chat about these artworks and public sculpture in general. The project is supported by Energise Galashiels Trust with funding from Scottish Borders Council and South of Scotland Enterprise.
