The Crawick Muiltiverse is a major land restoration and art project in Dumfries & Galloway, utilising landscape art to transform a former open cast coal mine into an artland and public amenity which spans a massive 55 acres. Funded by the Duke of Buccleuch and designed by globally-renowned landscape artist Charles Jencks, Crawick Multiverse represents exciting discoveries and theories of the universe.

 

I had the pleasure of photographing the launch event before it opens to the public in July. Alex Rigg’s Oceanallover and a cast of 30 dancers and musicians animated the landscape to the delight of the gathered audience.

I’ll be back later in the summer to get a closer look through the camera at the Jenks’ cosmic landscape.
