ABOUT THE TUTOR

Gael Hillyard is an artist and writer with a practice shaped by growing up in her family’s studio, where making, observation and exploring were part of ordinary life. She has been based at WASPS Inverness Creative Academy since its opening in 2019, where she has two studios – one for painting, and one for writing, research and creative development. Her work is held in private collections worldwide. Her practice is informed by dark sky advocacy, observational astronomy, ecology and a long-standing interest in landscape as system, atmosphere and material. She has served as Treasurer of the Scottish Artists Union, Secretary of the Highland Astronomical Society, STEM Ambassador for UHI, and Membership Secretary for Inverness Darkroom. She is currently developing ‘Continuum: Light and Life on the Atlantic Edge’, an exhibition at WASPS ICA in July 2026, and ‘What Remains?’ a body of work concerned with ecological fragility, and geological layering.
