Press Coverage

This project is based in Stirling city centre, uplifting empty shop windows and making them more appealing to potential entrepreneurs. It will bring pops of colour and celebrate the art circles of Stirling.    

Artwork Concept

These abstracted images take you on a journey through the themes of the environment and the impact that climate change could have on us all. Whilst asking you to consider the environmental impact of all our actions there is hope too. We must look to the future and do all we can to protect it for generations to come, so they too can enjoy the beauty of the natural world.     

Archaeology 

'Stirling is a which is rooted in history, Coneypark cist was found in 1979 in a burial mound. It is the oldest dated person and in the oldest dated cemetery. Bones were radiocarbon dated and found to be over four millennia old, within the date range 2152 to 2021 BC. Other Bronze Age finds near the city came from the area around 3000 years old but recent radiocarbon dating suggests they may date from the time of Bruce. The first recorded human activity in Stirling was recorded around 8000 years ago. Jacques's artwork suggests a "birds eye view of the earth" and resemble the texture of stone, using the colours of moss and lichen which can be linked back to the standing stones.'
