Last Chance to See //

Part of our current three-person exhibition alongside Kate Downie and Fiona Watson, Bronwen Sleigh’s work draws inspiration from industrial architecture, forgotten urban spaces, and the shifting environments found at the margins of the city.

Through printmaking and layered processes, her works transform familiar places into something unfamiliar - inviting a slower, more considered way of seeing space and structure.

Kate Downie’s work captures the shifting landscapes of Scotland - from industrial structures and coastal edge-scapes to the hidden worlds of plants and trees.

Part of our new three-person exhibition alongside Bronwen Sleigh and Fiona Watson, Downie’s practice is shaped by decades of travel, site-specific residencies, and an enduring fascination with place, industry, and environment.

Known for her immersive approach to working on location - from oil rigs to the Forth Road Bridge - her paintings and drawings offer a deeply personal vision of Scotland’s changing landscapes.

Inside Up presents etchings inspired by a two-month residency in autumn 2024 at the University of Alberta’s Printmaking faculty as Artist in Residence.

Rachel Duckhouse’s printmaking practice focuses on etching and drawing, inspired by the physical and psychological experience of being in a particular place at a particular time. She draws from the architecture of interior and exterior landscapes and the patterns and geometries within them.

'cradle' by Camara Taylor, brings together etched text, memory, ritual and rebellion through the symbolic presence of rum - a spirit carrying layered histories across the Caribbean and wider African diaspora. Both mass-produced commodity and sacred offering, rum becomes tied to libation practices, mourning rituals, celebration, and acts of resistance.

Referencing funeral processions as sites of gathering, plotting and collective remembrance, the works draw connections between joy and grief, rebellion and ceremony. Etched phrases including Plot and Grave and Mourners Rejoice at Riotous Assemblies evoke histories where music, rum and communal ritual became forms of survival and resistance.

Borrowing from the writing of Sylvia Wynter, cradle reflects on how language, ritual and assembly hold histories of both oppression and liberation.

Final Week //

You’ve only got one week left to view Form & Oxidation, our current Featured Artist exhibition by Lesley Logue at Glasgow Print Studio.

Logue’s practice stems from her training as a painter and printmaker and has expanded to include photography, moving image and sculpture. Working across expanded forms of print and sculptural installation, her research-led practice explores working-class histories, deindustrialisation, and the cycles of damage, repair and renewal connected to people and place.

She holds an MA in Fine Art from the Royal College of Art and a Professional Doctorate in Fine Art from the University of East London, and has exhibited nationally and internationally.

The exhibition continues until 30 May.

Tanker, screenprint and rust on steel by Lesley Logue

Part of Form & Oxidation, this body of work explores the pliable yet destructive properties of steel through sculpture, screenprint and etching. Using oxidised steel plates as both subject and printing surface, Logue pushes the material boundaries of printmaking - embracing corrosion, texture and distortion as part of the image-making process.

Inspired by Glasgow’s shipbuilding histories and her own family connections to the industry, Tanker reflects on labour, damage, repair and decline. Rusted surfaces and exaggerated shadows echo the physical weight of industrial materials while transforming them into something fragile, atmospheric and unexpectedly painterly.

A major highlight of Glasgow International 2026, 'Painting, our mutual friend' brings together two of Scotland’s most distinctive painters, Lorna Robertson and Andrew Cranston, in a rare joint exhibition at Glasgow Print Studio.

The exhibition marks a significant moment in both artists’ practices, expanding into printmaking through a series of experimental residencies developed at Glasgow Print Studio between 2025 and 2026.

As life partners as well as artistic peers, Robertson and Cranston’s work exists in close dialogue. Through a rich combination of etching, monoprint, watercolour and oil painting, 'Painting, our mutual friend' explores the intersections between painting and printmaking - considering how these mediums influence, challenge and respond to one another.

Featuring new and previously unseen works, the exhibition offers a fresh perspective on two celebrated artists while opening wider conversations around materiality, collaboration, partnership and contemporary painting today.
