Join us for the opening night of OMOS with a Q&A with the artists: Rhys Hollis, Andrea Baker, Divine Tasinda and Kheanna Walker.
OMOS is an exhibition of a new moving image project that pays homage to Scotland’s untold Black history, and celebrates Black excellence and LGBTQ performance in Scotland. Created by a group of award-winning performers, and filmed in Puck’s Glen and Stirling Castle, OMOS features each artist occupying space as they draw on the past and look to the future.
OMOS is produced by Pollyanna and funded by The National Lottery through Creative Scotland and National Lottery Heritage Fund. It is also funded by City of Edinburgh Council and Historic Environment Scotland. Partners include Historic Environment Scotland, Forestry and Land Scotland, Dunoon Burgh Hall, Royal Scottish Academy, Cultural Heritage and Arts Assembly Argyll & Isles (CHARTS), Argyll & Bute Council, the Fruitmarket, Scene Stirling and Transmission. The workshops in Edinburgh have been supported by the Year of Stories 2022 Community Stories Fund. This fund is being delivered in partnership between VisitScotland and Museums Galleries Scotland with support from National Lottery Heritage Fund thanks to National Lottery players.
