Morag Muego - Hannah Maxwell's Scrapbox

This piece is a response to the five folio volumes of scraps made by Lady Maxwell in the 1800’s. The box is a place to keep her scrapbooking things together – paste bottle and brush, scissors and packets of contemporary clippings, sorted by the genres she used.

In addition to the scrapbox, Morag has filled the room’s two long display cabinets with drifts of paper, made by cutting out the name Hannah Ann. These represent the trace of her labours and evoke her presence by her name’s absence.

The exhibition continues until 31^st March. Pollok House is in Pollok Country Park, Glasgow. Open daily from 10 – 5. Admission is free during the exhibition dates.
