Group Statement

We have been busy writing our Artist Statements for our forthcoming show, 'Moments in Time'. We have summarised these to compose a 'Group' statement and I'll put this below for you to read.

Moments in Time is an exhibition of BA Fine Art students currently studying at University of Wales Trinity St Davids, Coleg Sir Gar, Carmarthen.

This exhibition presents reactions to the past, present and moments that evoke responses to individual experiences in time.

Amy Beech produces work with the intention of bringing light to the forgotten. Her work is a combination of her own experiences and the stories of others.

Beth Pritchard’s work is eclectic, a lot like her personal memories. Through the mediums she uses she strives to preserve them.

Charlotte Ashleigh Halton-Davies takes a journey through the nest of belonging to look at the meaning of ‘Hiraeth’.

John Herriott looks through the mirror image of Carmarthen and Sarajevo.

Martin Reed’s work explores how simple moments in life can often be the most inspirational and become our greatest and enduring memories.

As Michele Laugharne Perrott creates work memories are stirred and moments in time are rediscovered.

Natalie Chapman paints to remember and paints to erase, the places she felt safe. It has never occurred to her to paint about anything else.

Ruth Goodger is interested in using a hint or suggestion of the human form to reveal the inner life of the individual.

Tamblyn Foster’s work revolves around nature and our connection to the Earth. She portrays the need for radical change in our relationship to the Earth.

Tirion Haf Rees’ work delves into home and personal spaces, assessing influence and the impact of Welsh culture. She questions the objects that surround her revealing their meaning-are they a consequence of having to maintain a tradition and so become an object of desire?

Mae ‘Digwyddiad Mewn Amser’ yn arddangosfa gan fyfyrwyr BA Celfyddyd Gain sy’n astudio ym Mhrifysgol Cymru Y Drindod Dewi Sant, Coleg Sir Gâr, Caerfyrddin. 

Mae’r sioe yn cyflwyno ymateb i’r gorffennol, y presennol a’r eiliadau sy’n ysgogi ymatebion i brofiadau unigol mewn amser.

Mae Amy Beech yn cynhyrchu gwaith gyda’r bwriad o ddod â goleuni i’r angof. Mae ei gwaith yn gyfuniad o’i phrofiadau hi ei hun a straeon eraill.

Mae gwaith Beth Pritchard yn eclectig, fel ei atgofion personol. Mae’n ceisio cadw ei hatgofion trwy’r cyfrwng mae’n ddefnyddio.

Mae Charlotte Ashleigh Halton Davies yn teithio drwy y nyth perthyn i edrych ar ystyr ‘Hiraeth’ .

Mae John Herriott yn edrych ar ddrychddelweddau Caerfyrddin a Sarajevo .

Mae gwaith Martin Reed yn archwilio’r ffaith mai’r adegau syml mewn bywyd yw’r rhai mwyaf ysbrydoledig a’r ffordd y mae’r rhain yn creu’r atgofion mwyaf pharhaol.

Wrth i Michele Laugharne Perrott greu gwaith mae atgofion yn cael eu cyffroi ac mae digwyddiadau mewn amser yn cael eu haildarganfod.

Mae Natalie Chapman yn paentio i gofio a phaentio i ddileu, y llefydd mae’n teimlo’n ddiogel. Nid yw wedi croesi ei meddwl i baentio unrhywbeth arall.

Mae gan Ruth Goodger ddiddordeb mewn defnyddio awgrym y ffurf ddynol i ddatgelu bywyd mewnol yr unigolyn.

Natur a’r cysylltiad gyda’r ddaear sydd wrth galon gwaith Tamblyn Foster. Mae’n portreadu yr angen i ni newid ein perthynas â’r ddaear.

Mae gwaith Tirion Haf Rees yn ymchwilio i mewn i gartref a mannau personol, gan asesu dylanwad ac effaith diwylliant Cymreig. Mae’n amau ​​y gwrthrychau sy’n ei hamgylchynu ac yn datgelu eu hystyr – ydyn nhw o ganlyniad i orfod cynnal traddodiad ac felly yn dod yn wrthrych o awydd?

Hello all

Hello all, Michele here and I'll be updating our page for the next week and hope to keep you all updated on our fine art group page. We have had a busy week organising our 2nd year show, well in facts 'shows' as we have been fortunate in booking two galleries rather than one. As quickly as we booked them we found that every gallery was indeed getting snapped up, so our timing was perfect. Swansea especially will be very busy this year as it is hosting many Dylan Thomas celebrations and expects lots of tourists with an interest in the writer. So please also come along and see some Welsh artists work at the Elysium Gallery in College Street, Swansea if you are visiting, you are most welcome! So, our first 2nd Year show(that's a difficult thing to say!) will be held at the Elysium Gallery from April 1st 2014 until the 6th of April, from 10am each day. We will have an opening evening and invitations will be send out and if you are interested please contact us on this page(all are welcome) or speak to the individual artist's if you prefer. Our show is called 'Moments in Time' and I will upload more details and images as soon as I am able. This show will move directly to Cardiff on the 7th of April for a week and will be held at the Norwegian Church in Cardiff Bay. Again, more detail will be added to this page as we are nearer to the date. As a team we are getting so much experience for all of this planning, so many things have to be considered,.. marketing images, artists statements relevant to each particular show, the practicalities of meeting with Gallery owners, size of galleries, parking, drop off points, advertising with local and further afield press, opening evenings, health and safety aspects, insurance, beverage facilities, the list goes on and on! But a great learning curve for us all and of course each time we are more aware of what is needed; plus of course we have had great support from the Galleries themselves and a big thank you to them for their professionalism! I will add some images of our groups work to give you an idea of what you may expect to see in our shows. Thanks for reading and we welcome your comments.
