we are not untouchable | lucy gray & leonie charlton

WE ARE NOT UNTOUCHABLE is the latest collaboration between sculptor Lucy Gray and writer Leonie Charlton. 

Lucy Gray is a sculptor working in mixed media. Her source of inspiration is the landscape of the west highlands where she lives. Her thoughts are shaped and changed while walking and form the groundwork for her sculptures. Leonie Charlton is a poet and writer living in Argyll. She is compelled by the porous boundaries between the more-than-human world and the human animal. 

We Are Not Untouchable is an exhibition inspired by layers of conversation: between Lucy and Leonie; between themselves and a dead hind they find washed up on the tideline; between other objects and beings that dwell in the intertidal zone; between elements meeting such as water and land, wood and stone, grief and joy. We Are Not Untouchable is also a conversation between sculpture and language, and what new layers of understanding are created when these different disciplines come together.
