Highland Journey : Robin Gillanders
In June of 1934, the writer and poet Edwin Muir borrowed a car and set out on a tour around Scotland. His book "Scottish Journey", published the following year, details Scottish identity and how it adapts to new populations settling here.
In 2006 photographer Robin Gillanders set out in Muir’s "tyre marks". He made an extended journey around the Highlands and Orkney inspired by Muir’s travels. Robin used a 5x4 camera, processing the film in the converted shower of a campervan.
