Exciting way to end the year and start of annual leave 😄
So excited to see the positive comments about @issy_gapp's new book in the December issue of @Choice_Reviews!
'... turns to the shared geographical areas and natural environments of Scandinavia and Canada to address a new ecocritical history of art. ... Highly recommended.'

What a fantastic way to round off the term, with a departmental research away day to @greyhopebay!
It's so inspiring to read each others work, & made even more special by the beautiful views! Thank-you Greyhope for allowing us to take over a table in the cafe for a few hours!

I'm so pleased to have opened today my first proper exhibition at @scottpolar.
Entitled, 'Under the Rays of the Aurora Borealis: Sophus Tromholt refound'.
The team worked so hard to make it work. The private view was a huge celebration (and a huge relief)!
