Exhibition, News / Posted by Rich
I have been commissioned to produce a new work for Castell03 at Caernarfon Castle.
The project ‘brings together visual artists, poets, musicians, scientists and historians to reflect on the theme ‘To The Sea’, which coincides with Visit Wales Year of The Sea 2018.’
I am collaborating with poet Rhys Iorwerth to create a response to the slate dias installed in the castle for the investiture of Prince Charles as the Prince of Wales in 1969.
The exhibition takes place from 15 to 24 June.
Contributors include:
Najia Bagi, Megan Broadmeadow, Caro C, Jackie Chettur, Nicky Deeley, Lynn Dennison, Alex Duncan, Thomas Goddard, Rebecca Hardy-Griffith, Harrop & Horrell, Gweni Llwyd, Joe Roberts, Rosalind Holgate Smith, Katie Surridge, Mathew Williams, with Cywion Cranogwen, Angharad Price, Gwilym Bowen Rhys, Iwan Rhys, Math Roberts, Iestyn Tyne, Marged Tudur.

As part of Occupation I have also designed a flag for Diglis Island.
The two different-sized blue sides represent the two levels of water achieved by the weir and locks either side of the Island, the ring signifies that it’s part of The Ring, and green for the Island itself - but with the same-level blue inside to reference the flooding.
Inside the ring is a symbol that represents the lock gates, the buildings on the Island, and the structures I am making. Finally, a life-bouy orange roundel with crown represents the Island’s only resident, Joyce.
