Brodie Sim
Home is the Isle of Tiree, Inner Hebrides.
As an islander based in a remote and rural part of Scotland,
I understand the importance of connection.
I am a visual artist, producer, mother, and social practitioner who is passionate about working creatively with rural communities.
I work with people, material, and place,
and view subtlety as a strength.
