The process of successful ageing is being highlighted in an art exhibition at the University.

A series of images of people taking part in a major scientific study into the mental and physical aspects of ageing features in a 48 hour exhibition at the University’s InSpace Gallery in Crichton Street.

Transformations – Life Portraits by artist Linda Kosciewicz-Fleming is based on the Lothian Birth Cohort 1936, a group of individuals who were born in 1936 and took part in the Scottish Mental Survey of 1947.

The exhibition uses video and photography to demonstrate how movement and facial expressions reveal the process of ageing.
