SSA ESSAY PROJECT | Phil McLoughlin | Society of Scottish Artists

We’re pleased to publish another selection from our August submissions; an essay by SSA Professional Member, Phil McLoughlin.

Art and the Artist: The name is not the thing by Phil McLoughlin

ABOUT THE ESSAY PROJECT

Launched in April 2024, The SSA Essay Project is intended to highlight the creative thinking of our members and to provide a platform for expressing and sharing our opinions on Art, Life and the World.

The essay programme is open to all our members. It could, in the future, also include contributions from invited non-SSA artists, art critics, journalists, philosophers and other professionals who may have an interest in the arts.

Interested contributors should submit their essays during the first week of any given month, with a view to being published on the SSA website at the beginning of the following month.
