Bringing together 14 unique makers, who through their innovative and original ideas, challenge our traditional perceptions of wood.

I hope this colourful exhibition challenges traditional ideas about working with wood.

I hope it causes some surprises.

I hope it counters the response to so much work that is handmade in wood by inviting the visitor to look beyond the surface and the skill of the making to see the original ideas and innovations of each individual artist.

And I hope that the exhibition is enjoyable!

Yn dwyn ynghyd 14 o wneuthurwyr unigryw, sydd, trwy eu syniadau arloesol a gwreiddiol, yn herio ein canfyddiadau traddodiadol o bren.

Rwy’n gobeithio bydd yr arddangosfa liwgar hon yn herio syniadau traddodiadol am weithio gyda phren.

Rwy’n gobeithio bydd yn peri peth syndod.

Rwy’n gobeithio bydd yn tynnu’n groes i’r ymateb i gymaint o waith wneir â llaw mewn pren drwy wahodd yr ymwelydd i edrych tu hwnt i’r arwyneb a’r sgìl o wneud i weld syniadau gwreiddiol ac arloesol bob artist unigol.

Ac rwyn gobeithio y bydd yr arddangosfa yn bleserus!
