HAVENS: Stories and Portraits from NHS Lothians

This work is the result of a commission in partnership with artist and writer Lottie Davies to make portraits, interviews and audio recordings with staff from a range of roles right across the NHS Lothians regions.

Presented as large format installations in hospitals, a flagship exhibition at Stills Gallery Edinburgh and editorial coverage in The Guardian, the work has reached audiences far and wide and included a bespoke publication with an original piece of writing by Lottie.

Audio recordings were presented via QR codes.
