Louise Gibson: Beachheads

Edinburgh Sculpture Workshop is delighted to present Beachheads, a new body of work by Louise Gibson for our summer commission 2025. This ambitious exhibition unveils a series of monumental sculptures crafted from the detritus of late capitalism, transforming industrial remnants into striking, thought provoking, sculptural forms.

Formed from discarded industrial and domestic goods, these sculptures speak eloquently to the excesses and wastefulness of contemporary consumer culture, drawing attention to our complicity in capitalism’s relentless cycles of production and disposal—and the environmental and social consequences they entail.
