Irfon Valley Artists and Artisans Return for September Exhibition

Throughout September

Following a summer of diverse and inspiring exhibitions, Llanwrtyd Heritage & Arts Centre welcomes back the Irfon Valley Artists and Artisans for its September exhibition. The group brings together a talented collection of artists and makers from across the countryside between the Cambrian Mountains and the Epynt, stretching from the Sugar Loaf through Beulah, Garth and Cilmeri.

The exhibition provides an opportunity to see the remarkable breadth of creative work being produced in this beautiful part of mid-Wales. Members work in a wide variety of media, including watercolour, oil and acrylic painting, photography, printmaking, ceramics, stained glass and textiles. While many take inspiration from the hills, valleys, rivers, streams, fields and woodland around them, others look further afield for their ideas and inspiration.

This year’s exhibition features work by a particularly varied group of artists and artisans.
Simon H Lilly presents pieces from his extensive A Welsh Dreaming series, created using
layered photographs to produce evocative and imaginative images.

Katie Fiszman explores Islamic geometric compositions alongside flowing biomorphic patterns.

Paul Rickard, whose work has featured in previous exhibitions at the Centre, draws on his long-standing interest in archaeology to create original relief, intaglio and lithographic prints.

Photography is represented by Sarah Mason, whose long-standing interest in the medium
now focuses on the landscapes of mid-Wales, and Andrew Dally, whose photographs of wild places are inspired by the landscape, history and literature of the region.

The surrounding countryside is also central to the work of Jon Hather, whose watercolours
capture the peaceful valleys, hills and moorland through the changing seasons, and David
Wetner, who paints landscapes and nature subjects in oils, often using palette knives and
working en plein air in the mid-Wales hills.

There are also some fascinating and more unusual approaches to art. Mandi Baykaa Murry
creates delicate paintings on naturally moulted feathers, inspired by quiet encounters with
birds, while Peter Barnett produces dramatic wildlife scenes in oils.
