From Issue Eight of Hidden Scotland Magazine
Ploterre
Rebecca’s artwork combines design, data, and the great outdoors to tell unique stories about the environment in Scotland and beyond.
Words by Laura Anne Brown

Hiking, cycling, surfing. On any given weekend, you might spot self-confessed outdoor lover Rebecca Kaye exploring Scotland on foot, bike or board. But fresh air and movement aren’t the only draws. Because when you run a creative business based on nature, inspiration can come at any moment. And the best place for it? That’d be outside.

Ploterre is Rebecca’s full-time job. And it’s a nine to five that nobody could have dreamt up, least of all Rebecca. In fact, she says it was something of a beautiful accident, bringing together all of her interests – maths, design, nature – into art.
