Collective Matter and KMAdotcom have worked together to create a new collection, celebrating the shared energy and commitment to nurturing individual and collaborative creativity found within the KMAdotcom artist studio.

A colour themed collection introducing some of our thoughtfully selected products, all available in our Collective Matter shop that sits inside the Observatory.

To celebrate a phrase fondly used by Edinburgh locals, Collective Matter has worked with artist Mick Peter to create a range of products in praise of folly. 

Souvenirs of Calton Hill propose a series of uncommon products that invite visitors to consider Calton Hill through the lens of astronomy, time-keeping, trade, architecture and making.

Collective was established in 1984 and has played a key role in supporting contemporary art in Scotland ever since. Our publications document some of our many projects along the way and our journey to a new kind of city observatory on Calton Hill.

Collective's programme of exhibitions, walks, events and off-site projects present contemporary art in all its diversity. Our artist editions have been produced through some of these projects.

Take a look through our entire collection.

Collective brings people together to look at, think about and produce contemporary art in a new kind of City Observatory.
