Branch Lines an exhibition at Linlithgow Burgh Halls

Elaine Allison - Branch Lines - exhibition 

Friday 5th February to Sunday 17th April 2016

@ Linlithgow Burgh Halls Gallery 

This is a diverse collection in two adjacent galleries. There is a mix of decorative materials, I liked the various tree themed prints, and assemblages of found objects. There were also small sculptures, for example a branch peppered with tiny figures. Much of the work is for sale, though I am not too sure what you would do with it. There is a theme of personal history, and remembrance. At times the exhibition was reminiscent of a memorial to the war dead, but generally the tone is lighter and the decorative elements shine through. 

The Burgh Hall also feature a small cafe, tourist information and some nice affordable jewellery.
