The Scottish Storytelling Centre's 'Storytelling Wall'

The Storytelling Wall  

For the opening of the new Scottish Storytelling Centre building, I produced a series of illustrations as part of an installation known as the ‘Storytelling Wall’. This interactive wall consists of boxes and panels, opening doors to modelled sets and objects taken from Scottish stories; each of the five layers explore different aspects of our storytelling heritage, from myth to history to well-loved classics. On the upper level of the wall, I contributed seven images drawn from Celtic folklore. Other wall installations and models were created by Sandy Andrew, an Edinburgh-based interpretive designer.
