The Upstairs Basement in The Wyllieum is the location for an exhibition of work by photographer, Alan Dimmick. ‘Daytripping’ is an exhibition of photographs, some taken on short trips from home to run an errand or on those planned daytrips with friends and family. Many have been taken on jaunts down the west coast, in particular Millport and the Isle of Cumbrae.
Daytrips occupy and create a space between the everyday and the extraordinary, through the act of stepping away, noticing details we might otherwise pass by, and returning with new perspectives on the familiar. Some highlight landscapes or cityscapes transformed by a passing glance, while others capture the quiet rituals of moving from one place to another. Together, they show how even the briefest excursions can shift how we see and feel.
The exhibition and The Wyllieum are free to visit.
