Nine Trades of Dundee publication - intro text

Our Nine Trades of Dundee publication is well underway. We asked Jenny Brownrigg, who co-initiated the project, to write an introductory text for the book. She has written an introduction which shows some of the life and reasoning behind the project. She used a quotation from writer Malcolm Gladwell...

‘Curiosity about the interior life of other people’s day-to-day work is one of the most fundamental of human impulses’
‘What the Dog Saw and Other Adventures’, Malcolm Gladwell, Penguin Books, 2010

Jenny speaks about the inspiration behind the idea coming from past work with artists, understanding of professional development for students and getting to know the organisation The Nine Incorporated Trades of Dundee.

Here are two pages from the publication:
