nationalgalleries | Karine Polwart explores the connection between art, language, poetry and song. @nationalgalleriesofscotland | Uploaded February 2024 | Updated October 2024, 4 hours ago.
In this episode of Perspectives, singer songwriter Karine Polwart, joins Greag Mac a'tSaoir, in front of a map of Scotland like no other, The Hidden Place by Thomas A. Clark.

This is one of many conversations, offering fresh perspectives on artworks in our galleries. Brilliant creative thinkers choose a work they love and share their way of seeing art and our world.

As a singer, songwriter, composer and essayist, Karine’s songs evoke a sense of place, hidden histories and folklore. One such project is Spell Songs, a musical evolution of both The Lost Words & The Lost Spells books by acclaimed author Robert Macfarlane and award-winning illustrator Jackie Morris. It is a listening experience that intersects music, literature, language and art, as a call to reawaken our love of the wild.
