HNC Photography students visited Hinterland in March as pat of their studies with Neil Sinclair and Lisa Fleming.
The exhibition ran for an incredible 10 days and was a total sell out.
Amidst the overwhelming public response and the news of £4.2 million in funding from Heritage Lottery Fund and Creative Scotland, a staggering optimism has emerged. The final evening of Hinterland served as less of a conclusion, and more of a starting point for a promising future for St Peter’s Seminary and its surrounding landscape.
150 years after the original Victorian estate of Kilmahew was established, they are now in a position to start afresh. As the official launch event of Scotland’s Festival of Architecture and a key highlight in the Year of Innovation, Architecture and Design, Hinterland presented the creative possibilities that the revitalisation of this site will bring. The new space will become a dramatic setting for public art and debate that speaks back to the world and finds relevance and use for bold and imaginative thinking.
