Released in 2020 and inspired by the women and landscapes of Coigach. Combining my two passions of art and music.
A collection of five limited edition 12”singles inspired by the women and landscapes of Coigach.
Each new single includes a bespoke cover design painted by Mairearad, combining her two passions – art and music- in this seamless progression from Mairearad’s 2016 album Summer Isles.
Braving Coigach’s west coast weather to paint landscapes ‘en plein air’, Mairearad’s impressionistic style is an emotional response to the land where the women from her past trampled the same soil.
The title ‘Hearth’, (traditionally an integral part of any home) symbolises the warmth, light and nourishment of the art and music combined and it reflects the resilient, and spirited generations of women from the area.
Mairearad says, “This has been the most rewarding and personal project I have ever worked on. To discover more about the women in my family and really value and celebrate the lives they lived through my art has been such a privilege.”
“I wanted to bring these women to life through my paintings and my music, making these five singles a personal and bespoke piece of art.”
Each 12″single is individually numbered, includes a complimentary lyric book and costs £20(plus p + p) or you can buy all five at a discounted price of £85.
