David Annand MRSS

Annand has been a public artist and sculptor since leaving college in the early ‘70s. Most of his work is commissioned and in the public domain. He has worked throughout the UK and Eire where he has several public art works. In Perth, Scotland, he made a piece called Nae Day Sae Dark inspired by the late poet William Soutar. He says, “... each time I am commissioned I try to use a local poet. The poetry slows down passersby and helps them relate to the piece. I worked with Seamus Heaney on a piece in the Marie Curie Centre in Belfast and in Bellaghy.”

I'm currently working on a life size figure of James Scott Skinner the flamboyant Scottish fiddler and composer. 2022 saw the unveiling of William Dunlop in Northern Ireland, the installation of the piece "Respite" dedicate to the staff of Limerick University A& E hospital and the unveiling of Philip Seymour Hoffman statue in Rochester NewYork State .
