EduFringe Scotland

Exhibition2023

Learning Places Scotland EduFringe Programme 2024

The theme for this year's Learning Places Scotland Conference is

Maximising Opportunities across the Learning Estate

EduFringe is inspired by the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. It will run alongside the
exhibition during the conference breaks, and highlight the most innovative ideas in Scotland's learning estate.

Day 1: 11:00 - 11:30 - Rockfon and Glasgow School of Art - Stand 314

Rockfon has teamed up with the Glasgow School of Art for the Learning Places Scotland event, showcasing original work from two of its students, Betty O’Connell-Rogers and Hana Aarow printed onto Rockfon Canva 1200 x 900mm acoustic panels.

Betty O’Connell-Rogers is an artist from Brighton who moved up to Glasgow to study Fine Art Photography at the Glasgow School of Art. Betty is mainly interested in capturing everyday human behaviours. The image, titled; ‘A Herd’ originated from her intrigue on how people flock together to certain places on certain days, like herds of sheep or bird murmurations. Making the people silhouettes creates this idea of a group, despite their individual shapes and lives we walk past them, only seeing the crowd.

Hana Aarow is a Scottish photographer based in Glasgow. He is in his fourth year of study at the Glasgow School of Art and enjoys working across both digital and analogue photographic forms, often in mixed media. Aarow uses photography for fine art projects based around his interests such as true crime and rock and roll music, as well as for documentarian purposes such as at concerts and exhibitions. He also enjoys taking pictures of the world around him and things he finds beautiful, of which the one shown here, ‘Leaf’ is an example.

Betty and Hana will be joining us at 10.45 - 11.45 on Tuesday 19th to meet those interested in learning more about their work.
