About the Exhibition
Presented in partnership with The Dean Gallery, National Galleries of Scotland
Edinburgh, city of the Enlightenment, is combined with its darker underbelly in Greg Creek's epic drawings and water colours, a form of city panorama. Detailed drawings of Edinburgh's architecture and notable landmarks are interspersed with more scatological notations, doodles, scenes, dreams and invented prose that build a delicate filigree of place. Creek's drawing encourages a visual journey that maps both place and time, with references to historical, contemporary and fictional events, people and subjects.
