Aurora Ursa
DescriptionI have named my bear Aurora Ursa, inspired by ‘dawn’ and ‘bear’. Growing up in and around Perth, I drew from its landscapes and skies. I have witnessed many striking sunrises and sunsets across Perthshire, where vivid colours and shifting light create a natural symphony. My design captures these elements, alongside the iconic scenery and rolling hills, reflecting renewal, new beginnings, discovery, and adventure through cycle of day and night.
The Auction
A bear-illiant way to back Tayside’s youth!
After the trail ends, the sculptures will be sold at an auction evening on 17 September 2026 at the historic Scone Palace.
All money raised will support YMCA Tayside and our youth work services to young people aged 8-25, mainly from disadvantaged backgrounds.
Help us make a bear-y big impact!
