Incontri

A Scots Italian photographic archive

Photographs Stories

Welcome

Italian migration to Scotland from the late nineteenth century to the present day has transformed the cultural and physical landscape of Scotland in many ways. Incontri aims to chart some of those transformations through their haphazard capture in the photographic image. Bringing together a disparate selection of images, our project presents the encounter between Italy and Scotland from new and unexpected perspectives. It is a project about place and about people.
