As I Find

Posted on February 4, 2014

National Memory – Local Stories is a digital project, which has taken place in 5 locations throughout the UK.  As the artist commissioned to work on Scottish stories, alongside students from Firrhill High School, I have created a short digital art film in response to facilitated visits to The Museum of Flight and the National War Museum and archive images from National Museums Scotland.  This project has not only enabled me to research the experiences of my own Great Uncles during The Great War but also to focus on the lives of my Great Aunts at home.  Further personal research at smaller regimental museums and industrial archives has delivered fascinating details and enriched my visual interpretation of a very personal story.
