Narratives

From 2007, LHSA worked alongside the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh Arts Committee and Ginkgo Projects creating the ‘Narratives’ exhibition.  This permanent installation was unveiled in the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh (RIE) in February 2009, and includes original donor plaques from the RIE’s former site at Lauriston Place and newly commissioned artwork by artist Marian Fountain.

When the Lauriston Place site closed in 2003, LHSA took in a vast amount of archival material and a number of objects and artefacts.  These included over 100 plaques from different wards, or even beds within wards.  A selection of plaques were taken out of deep storage to be used in this exhibition.
