What's On During the Month

To celebrate Orla Stevens' Sagas and Seascapes Exhibition at the Weigh Ahead Gallery in Dunblane, Orla and Nordic Viola will present a special film screening of their joint Sagas and Seascapes project, which was performed as part of the Made in Scotland Showcase at Edinburgh Festival Fringe last August. The screening will be followed by a drinks reception with the opportunity to view the art and meet artist Orla Stevens and musician Katherine Wren.

Norse stories and landscape around the northern sea-routes form the inspiration for this film.

The music is accompanied on screen by stunning video curated by Craig Sinclair of Orcadian and North Atlantic landscapes as well as film of the creative process behind specially commissioned artwork by landscape painter Orla Stevens, which provides abstracted colours and textures that respond to the music.

Learn about the inspiration behind the music as the composers meet in Orkney to experience the sites that inspired their creations.
