From June 21st to August 21st you’ll be able to find work across the Academy’s indoor and outdoor spaces.  This includes fantastic work by three NewBlood artists: Helen Latham, Lindsay Mapes and David O’Malley; each working in a very crisp, defined contemporary style.

Identifying artists at the beginning – often the very beginning – of their career, we curate those with the most promise: the ones carving out a unique aesthetic with dedication and talent.

We’ve been excited about Lorena Levi ever since Sarah discovered her work at Edinburgh College of Art’s degree show last year, when she was already winning prizes.
