Shortened version of a catalogue to accompany David Cass's exhibition, 'Rising Horizon' in The Scottish Gallery. In this new body of work Cass explores the abstract notion of a rising horizon, using painted seascapes as vehicles to explore themes of global warming and sea rise. Paintings appear on diverse surfaces, such as metal signs, antique tins, a copper boiler and re-formed plastic-waste panels (commissioned by the artist, containing thousands of compressed items of plastic food and drink waste packaging).
The catalogue features contributions from Professor David Reay of Edinburgh University, oceanographer & author John Englander and The Gallery's own Guy Peploe. Please see www.davidcass.art/horizon for more | Purchase a hardcopy at: www.davidcass.art/buying
