A project by Stromness Museum celebrating the piers of Stromness features the work of Gunnie Moberg. ‘Listening to the Piers’ is an exhibition in the foyer of Stromness Museum on until the end of December. The project is documented in the dedicated website here.
Gunnie photographed around the piers of Stromness making images for her books on Orkney and artworks for exhibition. She also photographed above the piers, documenting the geometric shoreline from the air. Gunnie lived in Stromness soon after arriving in Orkney in 1976, moving to Outertown, Stromness where she traded the piers for her garden. The family lived on the Double Houses pier when they had 4 Ness Road.
This looks brilliant! What are the xmas opening hours please?
Hello Sue
Stromness Museum is open Monday – Saturday 11am – 3:30pm during winter hours.
Finely reminiscent. For me, could only be Scotland.
