Strange Horizons – Millie Frood

3 February – 6 May

Millie Frood is a name rarely mentioned when we talk about Scottish master painters. Nevertheless, her style and passion for painting should earn her a place among the greats. This exhibition brings together a collection of her work as well as oral history and objects from her life as an artist in Motherwell and beyond.

North Lanarkshire’s Arts is proud to present an exhibition of work; video, film, photography, creative writing and soundscape which revisits the context of Ravenscraig in the wake of its inclusion as the Lowlands component part of the Scotland & Venice exhibition, A Fragile Correspondence as part of the 18th International Architecture Exhibition, La Biennale di Venezia, 2023.
