Updated 12 October 2026: the exhibition is now at the Charles Rennie Mackintosh Society, 25 November – 18 December.
Reiko Goto Collins’s new project, Horse | Tree | Earth, brings together performance, tree planting and an exhibition. Darkness, a working horse, carries native trees by cart from the Whisky Bond, by the canal and Applecross, to Hamiltonhill Claypits Local Nature Reserve, where friends, collaborators and community members help plant them.

- Starts at the Whisky Bond, 2 Dawson Road, Glasgow G4 9SS (the gate next to the canal), then moves into the Claypits for planting (enter from the corner of Firhill and Garscube Street, or from Applecross way to the pond area)
