Once We Were Birds

Tina Carr and Annemarie Schöne

9 January - 20 February 2010

 

Tina Carr and Annemarie Schone

Tina Carr and Annemarie Schöne, 2009

 

Award winning photographers, Tina Carr and Annemarie Schöne travelled to Eastern Europe to meet and work with Roma communities, documenting aspects of their daily lives.  Staying on campsites in Budapest and travelling in their converted van to a settlement in the North East of Hungary, the project engaged with and explored the identity, future, and aspirations of the many people they met. In seeking to document the lives of the Roma community, Tina and Annemarie present a powerful exhibition of photographs and film that advance a call for greater tolerance towards a mis-represented people.

Outsider

10 April - 15 May 2010

 

Louise Burton

 

Louise Burton - Imogen

 

An exhibition of selected works by eight contemporary artists either living or working in Wales.  This fascinating exhibition deals with intriguing ideas about the notion of the outsider.  Each work offers insight into the nature of difference and otherness; some deal explicitly and poignantly with the identity of the outsider, others allude to the emotional and physical effect of being an outsider.  Some artists introduce the possibility of positivity and humour in navigating this rocky terrain.

An exhibition of unexpected woven textiles by contemporary artists, designers and small businesses, all of whom have a reverence for tradition yet are embracing new technology, aesthetics and making methods.

Focusing primarily on Wales and UK this is a selection of the very best weavers producing innovative woven cloth.  A small number of international makers who are pioneers in their discipline have also been invited to exhibit.
