Morag Myerscough’s mantra is “make happy those who are near and those who are far will come.” The artist and designer is fascinated by how colour, pattern and words can change urban environments. Her first project in Scotland was for Look Again in 2019: for Love at First Sight she collaborated with doric poet and spoken word artist Jo Gilbert and the local community to create an artwork that encircled the Mercat Cross, part-pavilion, part-stage. Earlier this year Morag was a judge on Sky TV’s Big Design Challenge.
