CELF: The National Contemporary Art Gallery for Wales
'Mirrored Sky Beyond Low Tide', along with my sketchbooks are now part of the National Contemporary Art Gallery for Wales!
It was a huge privilege to be awarded this commission recently. This achievement means a lot! We celebrated the launch of Celf ar y Cyd last week at The Pierhead, Cardiff Bay.
The atmosphere outside the Wales Millennium Centre was buoyant - we shared the day with graduates from Cardiff University - a wonderful moment of creativity, community, and connection.
