Read our artist highlights from 2026 so far, including sculptor Lucy Gray's collaboration with poet and writer Leonie Charlton, Patricia Paolozzi Cain's participation in The Royal Scottish Academy's 200th Annual Exhibition, and Dan Jamieson's 'Hate Plate' showcase in New York. 

Fiona MacRae’s new series of mixed-media works brings together found timber and other sea-worn surfaces gathered over a lifetime of beachcombing along Scotland’s west coast.

The artist writes: “When Covid hit, we had just sold our house on Tiree of 54 years. A lifetime of beachcombing finds was cleared from the house and my immediate thought was, if I die, this will all be dumped or burnt. All these bits of wood have had a previous life, ended up in the sea for whatever reason, possibly crossed the ocean. They are about drawing attention to things we would normally disregard and my observation of colour in my immediate environment; no two colours are the same as I am constantly mixing.”

Broth Art is delighted to present five new works by painter Mafalda Figueiredo. Working on a more intimate scale than her usual compositions, Figueiredo continues her exploration of self-identity. In contrast to her larger paintings of full-bodied figures, these smaller works — ranging from 40 x 45 cm to 50 x 60 cm — are devoid of context, instead, they are concentrated vignettes that feel like pieces of a larger psychological landscape.

Laura McMorrow is a multi-disciplinary artist based in Ireland who I have had the pleasure of working with since 2020. Aside from her own individual practice, McMorrow works collaboratively with ^ - a collective of five artists who jointly engage in questions about land and ecology. Over the past three years, they have led events in response to environmental grief, care and tending to the land. 

This November, joining our growing roster of artists is Glasgow-based painter and researcher Graham Lister. He divides his time between his studio and GSA (Glasgow School of Art) where he works as a lecturer in Painting and Printmaking, and where he previously gained a practice-based PhD. He also has a MFA from Gray's School of Art, Aberdeen, and an MA in Art History from Glasgow University.
