I’m thrilled my painting “Three Sisters” is to be part of the @vadundee exhibition “Ninewells Hospital: Care, Community and Innovation”. It was wonderful to return to the city that had been a huge part of my artistic and surgical journey for so long.
This brilliant free exhibition in the Michelin Design Gallery focuses on the key moments of the last 50 years since Ninewells Hospital was built and showcases Dundee as a place for medical advancement and innovation.

The V&A Dundee describe the exhibition:
“Dundee has long been home to medical innovation significantly impacting each of our lives – throughout the time of Ninewells Hospital and predating it. Pioneering in areas such as IVF, keyhole surgery and the building design itself, this exhibition showcases the city as a place of medical advancement.
The exhibition features key moments from the last 50 years, including the Ninewells Cancer Campaign and the opening of Maggie’s Centre in the hospital grounds, alongside contemporary stories with a focus on responsive design and adaptation which came into force during the COVID-19 pandemic.”
The wonderful MaryB who truly championed my work and I’m grateful for her faith and trust in the creation of this painting.
Three Sisters is a hugely personal painting for me that highlights the important efforts of nursing staff during the COVID-19 pandemic and their contribution in rolling out the vaccine program.
Thank you MaryB for kindly agreeing to loan the painting to the museum and for being fabulous as always!
