For the latest Scots Whay Hae! podcast Ali spoke to artist Pat Law to hear all about GAFFER: Impressions from a Loch Fyne Skiff, a multimedia exhibition created by the Law family about the boat 'Kirsty' which will be on at the Scottish Maritime Museum until the 2nd of February 2025.
As well as Pat herself, the artists involved include Mhairi Law, an award-winning photographer specialising in rural environments, Kirsty Law, an innovative Scots song maker and singer, and Andy Law, the technical producer.
Pat talks about the inspiration behind the exhibition, the 'box of goodies' which were key, the personal connections, and why the lessons learned from maritime history have relevance today.
The two also talk about the skills needed not only to make and maintain such a vessel, but the attraction, attention and interest people have in and for them, before Pat explains her hopes for the exhibition, and for 'Kirsty' herself.
It's a fascinating conversation about a subject which speaks to a part of Scotland's history all too rarely covered in such an artistic, inventive and educational manner, and it whets the appetite for the exhibition itself.
