’Will Maclean RSA’s art is rooted in his knowledge of the Highlands, the Highland people and their history and in his own early associations with sailors and the sea.'

Will Maclean RSA is internationally recognised as a foremost exponent of box construction art. Using found objects which he deconstructs and reconstructs in a display of visual thinking that is compelling, he has developed a unique visual and poetic language. Reductive and honed, his metaphorical art is based on the histories and mythologies of those who live and work by the sea. His deep interest in Highland culture reaches out to universal themes of navigation, emigration, whaling and fishing, and global exploration. There is always strong narrative contained in his work, though immediate interpretations can be elusive.' RSA Website

What we do

We curate exhibitions, community projects, workshops and talks alongside hosting residencies and providing long and short term studio spaces.

Our programme of activities are designed to offer opportunities for all and support for artists in Ullapool and across the wider North West of Scotland.

Through our gallery, we aim to bring exceptional art from around the world to the North West of Scotland.

Our Dolphin Arts Project brings people together for weekly art sessions to creatively support those living with dementia, their families and friends. The arts have a vocabulary that can be non-verbal, allowing for communication that is unspoken but clearly deeply felt.

When memory is compromised by dementia, arts experiences can work with people’s imaginations and emotions - connecting people to themselves and to each other in profound and meaningful ways.

If you share our belief that art makes life richer and would like to support our future work, please consider joining An Talla Solais as a valued member or donating through our JustGiving page.

An Talla Solais is a registered charity without regular funding, therefore support like yours is vital to our work. Thank you.
