An exhibition by the Scottish Partnership for Palliative Care and Colin Gray.
There is an old African proverb – ‘It takes a village to raise a child – meaning, children need the input and support of their whole community to grow into well-rounded adults. But doesn’t it also ‘take a village’ to support someone who is dying?
The Scottish Partnership for Palliative Care has worked with award-winning Glasgow based artist photographer, Colin Gray, to produce this powerful and challenging series of portraits and personal stories. It Takes a Village explores the idea that as people’s health deteriorates, care and support comes in many guises.
The exhibition can be seen at the following venues:
Ninewells Hospital, Dundee
Forth Valley Royal Hospital, Larbert
Margaret Kerr Unit, Borders General Hospital, Melrose
It can also be viewed online here.
