Cultural Documents

Gaelic

Bidh Cultural Documents a’ cruthachadh chothroman do dhaoine beachdan a sgaoileadh is a leasachadh le bhith a’ rannsachadh, a’ cruthachadh agus a’ taisbeanadh ealain lèirsinneach an là an-diugh. Bidh iad a’ lìbhrigeadh thachartasan, thaisbeanaidhean, taisbeanadh fhilmichean, muinntireas do luchd-ealain agus sgrìobhadh ùr gus conaltradh a bhrosnachadh eadar coimhearsnachdan, a’ toirt còmhla ìomhaighean is àiteachan eugsamhail. Ann an Taobh Siar na h-Alba, tha Gàidhlig, mar an cànan dùthchasach, na h-inneal fa leth gus aithne phearsanta agus na ceanglaichean eachdraidheil eadar daoine is àite a rannsachadh. Le bhith a’ ceangal ri Gàidhlig, bidh Cultural Documents ag èisteachd is ag ionnsachadh bhon chànan is bhon luchd-labhairt, a’ saidhbhreachadh tuigse is ceangal cultarail.

Tha e deatamach dhuinn a bhith ag èisteachd is ag ionnsachadh tro Ghàidhlig is bho na daoine a tha ga cleachdadh gus an cuid ìomhaighean cultarail a riochdachadh.” – Cultural Documents

English

Cultural Documents generates opportunities for individuals to share and develop ideas through the processes of researching, creating, and presenting contemporary visual art. They produce events, exhibitions, film screenings, artists’ residencies, and new writing to foster dialogue across communities, linking diverse identities and locations. In West Scotland, Gaelic, as the indigenous language, provides a unique lens to explore personal identity and the historical connection between people and place. By engaging with Gaelic, Cultural Documents listens and learns from the language and its speakers, enriching cultural understanding and connection.

It is essential for us to listen and learn through the evolving Gaelic language and the people who use it to represent their cultural identities.” - Cultural Documents
