Clare Marie Bailey: Artist Talk

08 November 2025

Clare Marie Bailey is a photographer and filmmaker known for her surreal, dreamlike self-portraits and analogue films that construct alternative worlds beyond everyday reality. Born and raised on the Isle of Anglesey, her work is deeply influenced by cinema, magical iconography, and a fascination with the themes of reinvention and doppelgängers. Working primarily with film and using herself as the subject, her images are not straightforward self-portraits but rather visual manifestations of inner worlds and psychic landscapes.

Painting and Poems Workshop

12 - 15 August 2025

Art and poetry workshop under the care of Elin Alaw. Come and illustrate a piece of the history of the Gwynedd quarrying area, in this mixed media workshop. There will be an opportunity to discuss the form and quality of an old quarryman's tin, and then experiment with charcoal and watercolour to bring life to our images. Finally, we will incorporate Glan Tecwyn's poem into our work. This two-hour session, suitable for children aged 8 and older, is open to all parents, who are also welcome to participate. No prior experience in creating art is required. Limited numbers, so please book your place in advance.
