The chance to see an art superstar’s work in Shetland is rare indeed. Grayson Perry’s work is inspired by his own biography. This exhibition has in turn inspired local people to share items that encapsulate their own life stories.
From a rusty bucket to an iconic album, a backstory can make an everyday object meaningful. The object may represent your character, an all-consuming interest, or a memory that shaped your path in life.
Many thanks to everyone who have shared aspects of their own biographies alongside that of Grayson Perry in the exhibition 'A Potted Biography'.
