Towards a contemporary Welsh interior

Aelwyd, the title of this exhibition, is Welsh for hearth – a word synonymous with home. Through their material, making, story or use, the objects in this exhibition explore a deep-rooted sense of belonging and home.
Objects will include handwoven carthenni by Llio James that are refreshingly contemporary whilst continuing the tradition of Welsh textile design. Deiniol Williams’ unique vessels that incorporate stones and clay collected from the Welsh landscape. And Sophie Scharer’s lino-cut print compositions of well-worn and loved everyday objects.
In exploring the affinity we feel towards handmade objects, Aelwyd invites you to enjoy one possible path towards a contemporary Welsh interior.

Tua’r gofod mewnol Cymreig cyfoes

Aelwyd: mae teitl Cymraeg yr arddangosfa hon yn gyfystyr â chartref. Drwy eu deunydd, eu gwneud, eu stori neu eu defnydd, mae’r gwrthrychau yn yr arddangosfa hon yn archwilio synnwyr sydd wedi’i wreiddio’n ddwfn o berthyn a chartref.
Bydd gwrthrychau’n cynnwys carthenni wedi’u gwehyddu â llaw gan Llio James a’r rheiny’n amheuthun o gyfoes a’r un pryd yn parhau’r traddodiad dylunio tecstilau Cymreig. Llestri unigryw Deiniol Williams sy’n ymgorffori cerrig a chlai a gasglwyd o’r dirwedd Gymreig. A chyfansoddiadau print torlun leino Sophie Scharer o wrthrychau cyffredin hoff sydd ag ôl traul.
Wrth archwilio’r affinedd rydyn ni’n ei deimlo tuag at wrthrychau wedi’u gwneud â llaw mae Aelwyd yn eich gwahodd i fwynhau un llwybr posibl tua’r gofod mewnol Cymreig cyfoes.
