Mae "Roedden Nhw’n Caru’r Lle ‘Ma" yn arddangosfa wadd o waith diweddar gan artistiaid Becca Thomas a Clare Charles o Gaerdydd.
Er eu bod yn aml yn cydweithio â'i gilydd, artistiaid eraill neu gyda chymunedau, mae'r arddangosfa hon yn gyfle iddyn nhw archwilio eu harfer artist unigol ymhellach. Mae'r arddangosfa yn cynnwys dau osodiad: "Dyfriwch y Planhigion os Gwelwch yn Dda" gan Clare Charles a " Arbrofion Gwneud Meinciau i Ymchwilio'r Potensial i Ymyrryd ar yr Amgylchedd Trefol ar gyfer Llesiant ac Adfer" gan Becca Thomas. " Dyfriwch y Planhigion os Gwelwch yn Dda " Gan gymryd Diana fel pinacl disgwyliadau cymdeithasol o ofal, mae Dyfriwch y Planhigion os Gwelwch yn Dda yn cysylltu lliwiau, dillad, cynnyrch a deunyddiau, ac yn cwestiynu pwy y disgwyliwn iddynt ddarparu'r gofal. "Arbrofion Gwneud Meinciau i Ymchwilio'r Potensial i Ymyrryd ar yr Amgylchedd Trefol ar gyfer Llesiant ac Adfer" Gwnaed ar y cyd gan Becca Thomas, Christian Hart, Sam Hasler, Nia Metcalfe, Anne-Sophie Ouvrier, Thom O’Sullivan ac Ian Watson. *** “Roedden Nhw’n Caru’r Lle ‘Ma” yw’r pumed o gyfres o 9 arddangosfa a drefnir yn 2018 yn 76m2, Pont-y-pŵl gan brosiect *kickplate*, gyda chefnogaeth gan Gyngor Celfyddydau Cymru, Adran Datblygu Celfyddydau Cyngor Torfaen a Chyngor Cymuned Pont-y-pŵl.

"They Loved This Place" is a guest exhibition of recent work by Cardiff-based artists Becca Thomas and Clare Charles.
Although Becca and Clare often work collaboratively, with each other, with artists and with communities, this exhibition represents an opportunity to for them to explore their individual artist practice further. The exhibition consists of two installations: "Please Water the Plants" by Clare Charles and "Bench Making Experiments to Explore the Potential to Interrupt the Urban Environment for Well Being and Reclamation" by Becca Thomas. "Please Water the Plants" Taking Diana as a pinnacle of social expectations of care, "Please Water the Plants" links colours, clothing, products and fabrics, and questions who we expect to do the labour of care. "Bench Making Experiments to Explore the Potential to Interrupt the Urban Environment for Well Being and Reclamation" Made collaboratively by Becca Thomas, Christian Hart, Sam Hasler, Nia Metcalfe, Anne-Sophie Ouvrier, Thom O’Sullivan and Ian Watson. *** "They Loved This Place" is the fifth in a series of 9 exhibitions that will be organised in 2018 in 76m2, Pontypool by the*kickplate*project, with the support from the Arts Council of Wales, Torfaen Council's Arts Development and Pontypool Community Council. *** The exhibition opens on Monday June 18th from 2pm, and throughout the day Becca and Clare will be preparing food in the space with artists Thom O'Sullivan and Nia Metcalfe. You are warmly invited to join them from 6 - 8pm at the gallery when this will be served, along with cakes from Penrhiwgyngi Farm Bakery. Steve Harris from Saving Vinyl Music will be playing records from his excellent stall at Pontypool Indoor Market. |
