Lauren Gault - bone stone voice alone

The exhibition brings together a remarkable body of work that invites us to consider the history and future of our land: who has access to and ownership of it, and who has voice to remember, recall, share and speak out. Originally training at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design at the University of Dundee, Gault has longstanding roots in Tayside and has drawn on these connections with her research, collaborations, and creative production. Filling DCA's newly refurbished galleries with sculpture, print, sound and moving image, bone stone voice alone transforms these spaces into a new mythological world. The figure of Echo is traced through the exhibition, asking us to consider where voice exists in relation to land rights, access and ownership. Gault's expansive work has inspired powerful writing which features in this new publication alongside images of the exhibition. We are delighted that this book includes new texts by Dr Desiree Coral, Rose Higham-Stainton, Professor Katharine Earnshaw, Dr Ailsa Hutton and Dr Sarah Laurenson, as well as an introduction by May Rosenthal Sloan, who curated bone stone voice alone.
