Newhaven Station is an explorative exhibition into the transformation of space by Richard Taylor, Dickie Webb and Claudia de la Peña responding to the North Edinburgh site with new video, sculpture and wall-mounted works. Since its discontinued use as a public railway station in 1962 the building has evolved from a carpentry workshop into an abandoned space ripe for development. In its present reality the owner of Newhaven Station, has gifted the curator Holly Knox Yeoman and the artist’s use of the station as it nears a final transformation into freelance office space. The artists will respond to this flux in the station’s use, peeling away layers of history and community, to decipher new avenues in their individual practices and discover journeys as a collective group.
