A Perfect Father Day?

Fathers are not biological necessities, but social accidents
Margaret Mead

Anthony Schrag is a Canadian artist based in Edinburgh, he stayed with us in the summer of 2011 to investigate the role of fathers in today's society.

The stereotypical family image – mother, father and two children in a detached or semi-detached house – is fast becoming a myth. This year's census is expected to confirm that a greater proportion of the UK's households now comprise single parents, adult children living with their parents, or pensioners, than 10 years ago when the last census was conducted. Huntly, our town is no exception to this. Rarely a school board meeting passes without acknowledging the fact that there are too few male role models for our young people.
