A HOPEFUL call for renewed joy has been unveiled on an artwork posted on a giant billboard in a Scottish town. It is the first in a series in an outdoor visual arts project designed to promote pride in Paisley as well as raise spirits during the coronavirus restrictions. Three specially commissioned artworks are being featured on a five-and-a-half metre high billboard outside Paisley’s Gilmour Street Station between now and April 6 and are part of Renfrewshire Leisure’s Out of Place programme that also features online gigs, film, audio performances and creative workshops. The first piece to be featured on the billboard is a poem by Roddy Scott, called Sma’ Shot Reel, which talks about celebrating the end of coronavirus lockdown restrictions. The second is by David Rae, whose words draw on the romance of meeting and parting at the station.
