Went to a workshop this afternoon #NationalMuseumScotland by artist Cora-allan from the island of Niue in the South Pacific about hiapo (barkcloth) - loved learning about the process, how it’s used and the culture of Niue. Two of her pieces will be in the museum soon and excited to see them.

A huge thanks to Mark Gurney (@markgurn) and Ashleigh Whiffin (@ash_whiffin) for a fantastic day of weevil ID yesterday at the @nationalmuseumscotland collections centre!
