PAST EVENT: This was part of the EAF22 programme.
Presented for the 2022 festival, this exhibition celebrated who we are, what we have in common, and what makes us unique. In the year of Scotland’s Census, the show explored who lives in Scotland today, who came before us and who will come after us. Inspired by the questions asked in the census, Counted: Scotland’s Census 2022 considered the complex notion of identity and how is this shaped by our religion, occupation, health, and ethnicity.
New acquisitions by photographers working in Scotland today including Kieran Dodds, Arpita Shah and Danny North are presented alongside 19th century photographs by Thomas Annan and Hill & Adamson — offering comparisons between past and present generations of Scots.
