Name

Lar MacGregor

Bio

I have a passion for sustainability and circular economies, and as such I use regenerative materials such as wood, or waste plastics, scrapped metals and found objects, to create my sculptural works. The importance of provenance and practicality go hand-in-hand, and the majority of my material is sourced from nearby my workshop. I can trace the wood I use back to the stump, or the copper back to the skip, or the scrapyard, the plastics are gathered from hedgerows, or from roadside.

I have exhibited nationally and internationally, I have artworks in private collections, and my blogs have been published in magazines and online. I make small crafted items to large cultural pieces, and I also work as an Assistant Visual Arts Curator as well as a Participatory Artist for a Rural Health Equity project with the University of South Wales. I am an active member of Applied Arts Scotland’s, Closing the Loop Research Group.
