Miller

Biography Meg Miller is a Scottish visual artist and beekeeper based on the Isle of Skye, working across drawing, sculpture, painting and material processes. Following a career in textile design, making and education, she graduated with First Class Honours in Contemporary Art Practice (Sculpture) from Gray’s School of Art, Robert Gordon University. Her work has been exhibited throughout Scotland and internationally, including SEA(S) 2025 at the Ionion Centre for the Arts and Culture, Kefalonia, Greece. Practice Statement My practice is rooted in sustained engagement with the coastal and island environments of the Isle of Skye. Working across drawing, sculpture, painting and material processes, I explore how place is understood through movement, observation, return and time. The work develops through interconnected sites including shoreline, woodland, hill ground, garden and apiary. Beekeeping is central to my practice, informing explorations of communication, navigation, seasonal rhythms and relationships between different species. The waggle dance of honeybees, a movement-based language communicating direction and distance, informs how I think about orientation, exchange and the movement of knowledge through landscapes. Drawing is the foundation of my practice. Working with graphite, paper, beeswax and gathered materials, I record encounters with plants, bees and coastal environments. Through drawing and material transformation, I investigate tidal movement, weather, seasonal change and the traces carried through landscape. My work invites careful attention to the connections between landscape, materials, bees and the rhythms of the natural world.

My practice has been presented through a range of solo, collaborative, and group exhibitions across Scotland and internationally. Recent highlights include the Guthan na Mara / Sea Voices Residency at the Ionion Centre for the Arts and Culture, Kefalonia, Greece (2026), and participation in SEA(S) 2025, an international group exhibition at the same venue. I have exhibited with Art Skye, Gallery An Talla Dearg, An Talla Solais, Wasps Inverness, The Steadings Gallery, and other independent arts spaces. Collaborative projects include A Garden of Earthly Delights, Celestial Flora, Journeys and Encounters, and ongoing partnerships with fellow artists. Previous exhibitions include shows at Lemond Gallery, Skye Gallery, The Bridge Art Collective, and Gray’s School of Art Degree Show. I have also undertaken residencies with Cromarty Arts Trust and Scottish Sculpture Workshop, alongside receiving awards from Creative Scotland and other arts organisations.
