Undo the Knot
This exhibition from Glasgow-based artist Sara Barker opens at Cample Line in south-west Scotland this week. Taking over the full gallery building, Barker’s work blurs the lines between painting and sculpture. Largely created during lockdown – and in her home, rather than her studio – Barker has made a body of smaller-scale works that will be on display for the duration of the exhibition.
October 31, 2020 to January 30, 2021, from 11am-4pm.
Free (but booking must be made online)
Cample Line, Cample Mill, Thornhill, Dumfriesshire, DG3 5HD

Theatre to Go
Deliverance is a new live theatre show created by Brite Theater that responds to the challenges faced by theatres in these audience-free times. The show will be a socially-distanced performance that can be undertaken in your own home. Audiences/participants will be given instructions: a character and actions to go through, but there will be no-one watching. There will also be key moments when actors will join the performance.
October 30-31 at 6pm. Tickets from £16
Edinburgh, EH6 6RB

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
