In Scotland, the artist participates in a group residency at Hospitalfield, an arts organization established in 1901 based in the coastal town of Arbroath. Various events, public and professional meetings, studio visits, and cultural excursions are organized throughout the stay. Both artists meet at the start of residencies, with staggered dates.
