Samhla // Tùs-àite: Landscape and Affect, Isle of Skye

17.30 Wednesday 6th March 2024 – Hybrid event. In person at the Institute of Historical Research (London) and online via zoom. 

https://www.history.ac.uk/events/samhla-tus-aite-landscape-and-affect-isle-skye

Across millennia, people and more-than-human agents on the Isle of Skye have shaped and reshaped their relationship with land. This process continues today with an increasing commercial interest in Highland land for UK carbon capture, energy and housing crisis, greenwashing, and community land buyouts with Scottish land reform.  
 
We are interested in the accumulation of affect around Skye’s entangled heritage of the soil, and its sensory implications, which emerge vividly from both local archives and the material remains in the landscape. To engage with these complex materials, we are re-purposing the traditional archaeological survey report, creating a multivocal, porous, and inclusive resource. Thanks to its non-hierarchical structure, this work will be open to more-than-human agents and local conceptualisation of time or causation, including local folklore and aetiology. 
 
The project was commissioned by ATLAS Arts, a contemporary art organisation working across Skye, Raasay and Lochalsh, on the North West of Scotland to carry the rich cultural knowledge of this place, its people, stories, species and many creative practices. Tuath is a long term cultural collaboration exploring relationships between place, land, arts, culture and education based on 11 Fàsach, in Glendale, Skye. SAMHLA project has support from Henry Moore Foundation and Creative Scotland Open Fund.

Giacomo Savani is a Visiting Fellow at the School of Classics, University of St Andrews, Scotland. He works at the intersection of archaeology, classical reception, antiquarianism, and the history of medicine. He has published extensively on the reception of ancient baths and hydrotherapy, focusing on the role of printed images in disseminating antiquarian and medical knowledge during the long 18th century. Giacomo is also a visual artist currently collaborating with Lauren Gault to explore the role of objects and the senses in creating a connection with the past.
