Scarves, Alasdair Gray, Hogback Stones and Dirty Books

Saison 1 · Épisode 10

mardi 25 août 2026 • Durée 50:44

Join Karen as she talks to Irish artist and researcher Aoife Cawley at her Edinburgh based studio. We talk about Aoife's influences, use of colour, archives and dirty books! This is part one of a two part episode because we had so much fun chatting. This is part 2 of the interview. If you have not listened to part 1, I'd suggest going back and listening to it so you know what we are going on about!

Aoife Cawley is a printmaker and textiles artist from county Kildare, now working between Ireland and Scotland. Graduating in 2024 with First Class Honours in Contemporary Art Practice from Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design, her work explores folklore, mythology, history, and early Christian saints, blending traditional medieval art forms with contemporary techniques.

Her vibrant, multi-layered screen prints and embroidered textiles have been exhibited widely in Ireland and the UK, and she has been featured in media outlets such as The Irish Times, RTÉ, and Tourism Ireland. In 2024, she was artist in residence at Creative Spark, Dundalk, and the Hugo Burge Foundation, in the Scottish Borders.

Aoife was awarded the RSA John Kinross Scholarship in 2024, and her work is held in collections such as the University of Dundee Museum.

Round the Studios will be taking a short break (I am knackered) but come back in two weeks time for the new season of Round the Studios!

lundi 10 août 2026 • Durée 16:25

The Glasgow Society of Lady Artists (GSLA) was established by eight students of The Glasgow School of Art in 1882. The club, with its pro-woman ethos, attempted to combat sexism and misogyny in the Scottish art world. However, it quickly developed into a club for forward-thinking women of Glasgow, and further afield, with a list of women from an array of professions and backgrounds including doctors and nurses, teachers, political activists and socialites.

Karen’s main research focus is related to gender and the built environment in Scotland since 1880.

Modern Scottish Women

Saison 1 · Épisode 6

mardi 21 juillet 2026 • Durée 43:10

Karen talks to art historian and curator, Alice Strang. Alice was the curator behind the Modern Scottish Women: Painters & Sculptors 185-1965 exhibition which was held at the National Galleries of Scotland from the 7th of November 2015 to the 26 Jun 2016.

In 1885 Sir William Fettes Douglas, President of the Royal Scottish Academy, declared that the work of a woman artist was ‘like a man’s only weaker and poorer.’ In the same year, Fra Newbery was appointed Director of the Glasgow School of Art and did much in terms of gender equality amongst his staff and pupils. Between then and the death in 1965 of Anne Redpath, the doyenne of post-World War Two Scottish painting, an unprecedented number of Scottish women trained and practised as artists; the exhibition focused on paintings and sculptures made by forty-five of them.

In this episode, Karen and Alice talk about a range of topics associated with women featured in the exhibition including the impact of the Marriage Bar, Jessie M. King and Greengate Close and how the curatorial team selected the artists and works for the exhibition. Modern Scottish Women was accompanied by a lavishly-illustrated book based on new research which has recently been reprinted and is the National Galleries of Scotland book of the month for July 2026.
