CEANGAL=CONNECTION

This project is the brainchild of Lynn Bennett-Mackenzie, an artist living and working in the NW Highlands of Scotland.

An idea inspired by talking online to artists who had attended symposiums in other countries, the seed grew after her own experience on an international symposium she attended in Elabuga, Russia.

After this, she made many connections through social networking media and this led to a conversation with Somu Desai, an artist working in Gujarat, India. He has been involved with the Sandarbh project in Rajahastan, so the decision was made to collaborate, pull ideas together and create a project that would fit the environment in north west Scotland.
