- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 01 Apr, 2026 at 11:30 am – Wed, 01 Apr, 2026 at 01:30 pm (+01:00)
- **Event Description**: Join Emily McLennan for a relaxed, creative workshop exploring seeds as symbols of hope and future potential.About this EventEvery seed holds a promise. Small, intricate and resilient, seeds carry the potential for growth, transformation and new beginnings. They are nature's way of thinking forward, of investing in what's to come. In this workshop, we'll explore seeds not just as botanical forms, but as symbols of hope and possibility for the future we want to grow.Drawing inspiration from microscopic photographs of seeds and artist Katie Paterson's "Future Forest" project, we'll reflect on what we hope to nurture for future generations — whether that's care for the environment, stronger communities, or values we want to pass on.Over two relaxed hours, you'll draw and play with colour, exploring the beauty of seed structures through microscopic photographs. You'll create interpretive drawings layered with colour washes, building artworks that hold both what you observe and what you imagine. As you make, you'll also write brief positive statements for the future — gentle visions of hope to share with the group.This is a process-focused, reflective session that balances quiet creativity with conversation and connection. No experience is needed, and all materials are provided — just bring your curiosity and your hopes for tomorrow. A gentle way to meet others while making space for optimism and care.Emily McLennan is an artist based in Stirlingshire whose practice is rooted in ecological observation and connection to place. Working across painting, print and drawing, she explores how art can inspire care for the environment, build community and reimagine more sustainable ways of living.Her work often focuses on soil, roots and mycelial networks, the hidden systems that sustain ecosystems and human life alike. Through slow, sensory, material-led processes, Emily’s work invites viewers to reconnect with nature, to observe more closely and to consider their role in preserving the delicate balance of our ecosystems. For her, the threads of mycelium embody communication, nourishment and resilience, offering metaphors for the unseen forms of support that connect us to each other and to the natural world.Through a series of exhibitions, events and workshops, the University Art Collection aims to make art and culture a part of daily life for students, staff and visitors. All are welcome to the Pathfoot Building to explore our collection of Scottish contemporary art and to participate in our events. Each year our work focused on a theme, relating to the research of the University. This year our theme is Art &amp; Science where we are exploring the shared communities of practice between artists and scientific researchers.
