In 2022 I moved to the island of Ulva, seeking a reconnection to the natural world. After a few weeks wandering the rugged coastline I started noticing old ghost fishing rope entangled on the shore, and felt compelled to start untangling it, soon I realised I was untangling my mind as well. I worked as one with the rope, creating patterns and eventually art and sculptures. I now want to share this experience with others, offering workshops where participants can hear my story, spend some time focusing on untangling old rope and creating something new.
Funded by the Pebble Trust as part of our Green Awareness programme, join Ian McMillan, The Rope Guy, on a journey untangling rope and minds in a two hour workshop, where Ian will tell his story of healing through his artistic practice and the power of the natural environment.
