Dame Barbara Rae, CBE RA RSA: Time Lines
-
Overview
Time Lines brings together works from locations Rae has revisited throughout her career, among them the west coast of Scotland, where she has painted since the mid 1970s, returning repeatedly to Glenuig and Achiltibuie; the Lammermuirs, that formidable natural barrier between the Lothians and the Borders, marked by millennia of prehistoric earthworks, shelter belts and field dykes; County Mayo on the west coast of Ireland. A place she has returned to almost annually for more than two decades, working during the winter months, when low sunlight reveals hidden contours and ancient field patterns, Rae captures the land as both physical terrain and historical record.
