Permanently installed at the Edinburgh Futures Institute, the Edinburgh Seven Tapestry commemorates the first women to matriculate at any British university. Designed by Christine Borland and created by Dovecot Studios, the tapestry triptych was made using a combination of traditional and modern materials and techniques. Its organic shapes are based on cellular structure in motion. 

Commissioned by Dovecot Studios, with funding from Sir Ewan and Lady Brown.
