A Journey from the South Atlantic to the Toogs Artist Workshop.

Scotland’s museum of design, the V&A Dundee, have launched three exclusive new editions by artist Struan Haswell + Gaada.

Gaada was recently commissioned by Shared Lives Shetland to develop a branding and design project that enhances the visual identity of this community support service, whilst also championing the work of a local Shetland Artist.

Julie Dennison reflects on her newly released artist publication ‘Da Holmliwatters’ which was commissioned by Gaada in 2021, alongside four fellow writers, artists and community groups, to respond to Walter Scott’s unfinished Shetland By Numbers project.

Kokkilorie is a new artist book by poet Jen Hadfield which celebrates the month of June through a series of prompts.

Shetland based artists are invited to a collaboration day in the Toogs Artist Workshop under the collective banner of Brigði: A bridge of Plankton Blooms & Basking Sharks.

Longtime Gaada collaborators, Struan and Daniel, have produced a Membership Certificate for SDSS

Gaada has been awarded a Scots Language Publication Grant from the Scottish Book Trust to support a collaboration between Shetland writers, Marjolein Robertson and Roseanne Watt.

We are excited to announce the recipients of Gaada’s Safeland Micro-Commissions

As part of Safeland, Gaada has created a series of 5 micro-commissions for writers, artists and community groups to respond to the below selection of uncompleted projects of Walter Scott's Shetland by Numbers.

In the first of two collaborative exhibitions, Elie Coutts + Cameron Morgan are displaying their work at Project Ability from 12 March - 9 April 2022.

Gaada is delighted to finally unveil the completed ‘Hamnavoe Safe Haven’ - a permanent welcome wall mural on the exterior of Hamnavoe Primary School!
