The Jetty Gallery
Margaret Ker
Margaret’s mosaic works are created with local Easdale slate and gold leaf Italian smalti. She draws her inspiration from the rich cultural history of Argyll from the Stone Age through the Iron Age and up to the present day which has resulted in the high concentration of archeological remains we are still uncovering today. Standing stones, cup and ring marks, cists, cairns and the abandoned settlements of the clearances all feature in her beautiful, intricate, rhythmic designs. As a keen stargazer, Margaret often incorporates the spectacular patterns of constellations seen in the dark night skies.
