Necessary for drinking, washing, transportation, farming, rituals, recreation \u2013 the list is endless. Almost literally everywhere, covering about 71% of the planets surface. We can\u2019t live without it and yet we are prone to take it for granted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\">The water we use today has been circulating through the planet since the beginning of time and must sustain us for as long as we live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\">Artists have been representing water for centuries. Botticelli\u2019s The Birth of Venus, Hockney\u2019s A Bigger Splash or The Great Wave off Kanagawa by Hokusai are but a few famous examples. Water has been depicted to represent change \u2013 forever flowing and changing course. It has symbolised purity and cleansing. It is used to frame a sea or landscape or be the focal point of a painting such as Frida Karlo\u2019s What the Water Gave Me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\">The exhibition will be co-curated with Edinburgh based artist bookmaker and tutor Susie Wilson.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uprightgallery.com\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.uprightgallery.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Upright Gallery | 3 Barclay Terrace, Edinburgh EH10 4HP<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/lostpathpress.co.uk\/edinburghandelsewhere\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/The-Ocean-5-1024x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"The Ocean - book by Elaine Robson\" class=\"wp-image-1023\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lostpathpress.co.uk\/edinburghandelsewhere\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/The-Ocean-5-1024x1024.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/lostpathpress.co.uk\/edinburghandelsewhere\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/The-Ocean-5-600x600.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/lostpathpress.co.uk\/edinburghandelsewhere\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/The-Ocean-5-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/lostpathpress.co.uk\/edinburghandelsewhere\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/The-Ocean-5-768x768.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/lostpathpress.co.uk\/edinburghandelsewhere\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/The-Ocean-5.jpeg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Artist Book Makers Annual Exhibition 2-23 December Our collaborative swiss flexagon CAST\/LURE will be on show plus two projects by Elaine Robson &#8211; The Ocean and Evolving Tides.
