TOLL - a response to the past and present impact of the pandemic

TOLL is a response to the past and present impact of the pandemic on a range of different communities in the Highlands, led by Sinéad Hargan, Cat Meighan and Hector MacInnes, and forms part of the wider Remembering Together project.

Sinéad, Cat and Hector are creating a mass participation artwork involving the carrying and ringing of multiple bells, each with a short inscription drawn from activity around the pandemic with vulnerable communities.

A community gathering and walk in Lairg on Saturday, June 1, will mark the start of the Toll Trail - a mass participation artwork reflecting individual and community experiences of the coronavirus pandemic.
