Great exhibition to be part of at Gracefield Art Center, Dumfries. A fascinating exhibition to see how ceramic and visual artists worked together exploring common themes and ideas in each other’s work, on until May 2nd 2026.

Some photographs of a group exhibition I am part of called ‘Conversations with Clay’. Last June I was invited by ceramic artist Archie McCall to work together on a fantastic project culminating in an exhibition at Gracefield Arts Centre in Dumfries. The pieces are the result of almost a year of conversation about our practice and commonalities, and spending time exploring the elements and aesthetics of a local peat bog nature reserve in SW Scotland. It runs until 2nd May 2026. Some great work by the participating artists.

A couple of examples of my paintings alongside Archie McCall’s pots, exciting to see the visual connection between our work. Though we made the pieces separately, this was the result of almost a year of conversation about our practice and commonalities, and spending time exploring the elements and aesthetics of a local peat bog nature reserve in SW Scotland. The exhibition exnds today, but I will be showing some of this work at Spring Fling Open Studios at the end of May. https://www.spring-fling.co.uk/studio/cat-coulson-2/

Bluebell woods at Castramont. Lots of huge phoenix trees in this temperate rainforest have fallen, but adapt and are able to keep growing into magnificent forms.
