Join artist Jane Hyslop at the Fruitmarket in Edinburgh for an enlightening talk on her latest artist's book, The Oak Tree: a tribute to eternity. Inspired by Virginia Woolf's novel Orlando, this captivating book takes readers on a journey spanning over 700 years, intertwining historical and contemporary elements with fictional storytelling. As we face the challenges of climate change and declining biodiversity, The Oak Tree serves as a poignant reminder of the present moment while urging us to look towards the future.

In this imagined visual edition of the poem featured in Woolf's novel, Hyslop uses plants as a symbolic thread, echoing Orlando's adventures across the centuries. Through direct references and symbolism, the book shines a light on key historical and current events. To provide further insight, Professor Bryony Randall from the University of Glasgow collaborated with Hyslop to write the introduction and accompanying notes.

Mark your calendars for Saturday, February 10, 2024, when this remarkable artist's book will be launched. Don't miss the opportunity to delve into the intricate world of The Oak Tree.

It is the most romantic sunset place. I have been here, it was cold but beautiful! I will not go into details about the many celebrity check-in places.
But my only deepest experience was the lyrics,
&quot;The castle keeps secrets for love, and I keep memories for you&quot;
I didn&#39;t think this song was romantic before, until I climbed to the top of Carlton Mountain⛰️It was really speechless and beautiful!!
I really like this light blue gentle dusk~~Thanks to the little afterglow near sunset that day, I saw the light blue and light orange sky line in the distance, which was really extremely romantic~~Continuously touched me✨💕🌹Recommend this extremely romantic place, must go?
