And artist Susan Aldworth reflects on her 40 years as an artist and tells us about her new exhibitions at Edinburgh Printmakers, one of which involves imagining the contents of her grandmother's suitcase when she immigrated to the UK. She also talks about how she attempted to learn about the sense of self through studying real life scans of the brain during operations, collaborating with students and retired seamstresses to create her exhibition, and how she attempts to create empathy for first generation immigrants through her art work.
