Neil Laredo’s ‘Bell’ has just been installed in the front garden of Braemar House!

His artwork is inspired by Edgar Alan Poe’s poem ‘The Bells’ and examines how familiar sounds and objects can become a metaphor for human experience.

The Public Sculpture Garden is open all day (and night), every day of the week.

Neil is also exhibiting inside Braemar Gallery with his exhibition, 'Identity - A Self Portrait', running until Sunday 21 June.
