Boleskine House is calling submissions for their first art show, which will go by the name “What Endures.” Details below:
Where fire, water, time, and hand
have each had their turn—
and something still remains,
Boleskine House stands.
We invite artists to submit 2D works for What Endures, a group exhibition exploring continuity, renewal, and the forces that persist through decay, silence, and change.
Set on the edge of Loch Ness, Boleskine House stands as a site shaped by history, landscape, myth, and human intention. This exhibition seeks work that reflects on endurance — of place, memory, ritual, nature, belief, and creative spirit.
We welcome responses inspired by:
• the Highlands and surrounding landscape
• the history and atmosphere of Boleskine House
• cycles of ruin and restoration
• the unseen, the symbolic, and the intuitive
• what remains when everything else falls away
Medium: 2D works only – painting, drawing, print, photography, mixed media
Selected works will form a group exhibition within the house — a temporary convergence of voices, marks, and memory.
What endures is not what survives untouched —
but what remains willing to speak.
“The joy of life consists in the exercise of one’s energies, continual growth, constant change, the enjoyment of every new experience.”
— Aleister Crowley
