The dark corners of Scottish folklore have inspired a stunning new light installation in Perth city centre.
The “Away with the Faeries” installation on Guard Vennel by award-winning artist Elisa Artesero takes its inspiration from legends of people disappearing for months or even years because they were dancing or playing music with faeries.
In Gaelic, the word for faerie is Sith, pronounced “shee”, and features in several familiar place names across Scotland including Glenshee and Schiehallion, which translates faerie hill of Caledonia.
