Over the past twelve months, I have unearthed in my studio, many drawings and paintings from a decade and more ago, and re-worked them. In some there are vestiges of what was there before like palimpsests, and others have become completely new. The message of the work, on the whole, remains the same, although the world has changed.
The exhibition also contains works on loan from Amgueddfa Cymru and The National Library of Wales, and made possible by CELF, an initiative to share contemporary art collections held in public institutions in Wales to a wider audience.
