- Description: The series of images in this portfolio entitled ‘Fragments‘ are the result of a collaboration between visual artist Calum Colvin and poet Tom Leonard. This portfolio of five large-scale etchings and complimentary screen printed texts is an extension of the 'Blind Ossian' series created by Colvin for the 2001 Scottish National Portrait Gallery major exhibition ‘Ossian, Fragments of Ancient Poetry' and further explores issues of nationalism and identity explored in earlier work. Leonard's words are responses to each of the Colvin images and employ bold composition, typography and use of colour to create powerful visual as well as literary statement.
