Grey Glasgow 2024, Darker States 2025: Discovering Colour in Wet Scotland as Preparation to Manage Living in the United States

Grey Glasgow/Darker States is a set of original artwork by an American physician inspired by the wet cloudy Glaswegian summer of 2024 and its influence upon return to the United States in 2025.

The damp Scottish city rich in architectural beauty and lovely, interesting people served as a sharp contrast to the breakdown of integrity, civility and infrastructure in the States. Marginalized populations and science-based advancement are under attack from an administration committed to imposing a moral framework inconsistent with the reality of life in the 21st century.

This body of work is a statement pushing back that gender expression, identity and sexuality are basic human rights, and that government infrastructure to support the weak, infirm, and needy are acts of human decency. Though an evolving story in unsteady times, grey Glasgow of 2024 has shaped pushback to life in the darker United States of 2025.
