Discovery Point - 2020

Subject: Discover Scotland - A new exhibition by St Andrews Photographers opens at Discovery Point, Dundee.

A new exhibition by St Andrews Photographers opens at Discovery Point on 18 January.

Discover Scotland, is an exhibition of landscape images of Scotland showing the variety and beauty of Scotland’s landforms and scenery. This small group of photographers undertook ‘a voyage of discovery’ to produce the wonderful pieces in the exhibition.

The St Andrews Photographers are a small group of photographers based in North Fife. The group is a vibrant and active group of photographers with many members living in St Andrews and the Northeast of Fife, as well as further afield. Between them they have many years of experience and their work has won many accolades locally, nationally and internationally.

Although they have exhibited individually before, this is only their second major exhibition as a group.

Mel Ruth Oakley, Curator for Discovery Point says ‘We are thrilled to be able to showcase the work of The St Andrews Photographers here at Discovery Point, knowing the high quality of the work produced by the members. The members exploring Scotland’s landscape is a brilliant example of ‘thinking local’ for the exploration we each do in our daily lives’’.

Nicola Shepherd from the St Andrews Photographers said “As a group of friends with a shared interest and passion for photography The St Andrews Photographers are delighted to be able to exhibit at Discovery Point, Dundee. For this project we aimed to show visitors views of Scotland from a place or in a way they may not have seen before.”

The exhibition runs from Saturday 18 January until Thursday 9 April in the Discovery Point Café.
