James and Gill were the first resident artists and worked closely with Erskine residents on a wide range of creative activities, from photography to poetry and from soundscapes to painting. Luminate and Erskine have worked together since 2017, originally as part of a programme called Unforgotten Forces, a partnership of 16 charities supporting older veterans across Scotland. The Luminate project was devised with the aim of engaging with residents in new ways and to bring artistic talents to the fore. The sculptures draw on nature, and the memories and stories of the Erskine residents, to create an interactive experience. Nestled among the trees in the tranquil surroundings of the Erskine Estate, the Sculpture Trail is testament to the creativity and joy residents experienced working alongside the artists to create a lasting display. The trail consists of 10 sculptures, created by Artists in Residence Gill White and James Winnett in collaboration with Erskine residents and was launched on 31st August. Scotland’s largest Veterans’ charity, in partnership with creative organisation Luminate, has launched the Erskine Sculpture Trail in the grounds of the Erskine Veterans Village in Bishopton.
