Oor Tatha Rannsachair (Oor Tay Explorer)

Oor Tatha is inspired by Dundee and the beauty and changing mood of the River Tay. He portrays times spent exploring by the river and journeys crossing over it – a city framed by an expanse of green hills and silvery blue water. There are references to the marks in the stonework along the river wall, patterns created by tides distributing pebbles across the shorelines of Tay Country, and the bold geometrics of the bridges. Finally, those breath-taking moments when shafts of sunlight pour in through heavy rain clouds and the glorious sunrises and sunsets that light up the river.
