Kirsty Whiten
It may look like a teenage fantasy but this image from the Feral Lingerie series is from the pen of
Edinburgh-based artist Whiten, and she's no teenager. She’s one of the most intriguing artists in the capital at the moment and this solo show is followed by one at the Collective later in the month.

Gossip, chat and rumour from the gallery floor
I Alison Watt (pictured) has been chosen to be the Scottish artist in residence at Glenfiddich this year. Eight other international artists will be flying over to spend their summer up in Speyside looking for peace and inspiration in the whisky retreat. Artbeat caught up with Watt to talk about her plans. ‘l’ve known for a few weeks now and am thrilled,‘ she says. ‘I went to visit the distillery before Christmas and it’s so strange because it's a big complex in a beautiful area. I had no idea it was so huge - there’s 2000 acres of land there. There are cottages for all the people who live and work there so it'll be interesting - the artists will have to fit in.‘
The change in working pattern from being an isolated painter is something Watt has been moving towards in the last year. ‘lt’s coincided with a shift in my own work which is much more collaborative. With “Still” I was working with Alan Spence for the book that we made and for my Creative Scotland Project [for which a giant metal cube had to be made] I’ve been working with lots of people in its construction.'
So does she have any ideas about what she’ll do up there? ‘I don’t really have a clue. But it’s just a chance to ‘be’ - to get away from normal surroundings and have time to expand in your own head.’
