PROCESSIONS, is a UK-wide mass participation artwork to mark 100 years of women’s suffrage, produced by Artichoke and commissioned by 14–18 NOW, based on an idea by Darrell Vydelingum.
PROCESSIONS will invite women* and girls across the UK to come together on the streets of Belfast, Cardiff, Edinburgh and London on Sunday 10 June 2018 to mark this historic moment in a living, moving portrait of women in the 21st century. *those who identify as a women or non-binary.
As part of the event Art organisations across the UK have been assigned to select an artist to design and make a banner for the Procession on the 10th of June. As a result, One hundred women artists have been commissioned to work with communities across the UK to create 100 centenary banners for PROCESSIONS.
Ruthin Craft Centre is pleased to announce that we are one of those arts organisations taking part in the event and our lead female artist will be Lisa Carter.
Lisa Carter lives and works in North Wales. Her work although rooted in painting and drawing sometimes combines these processes with sculpture and installation. www.lisa-carter.com
The women who came together on the streets a hundred years ago made themselves visible with handmade flags, banners, pins and rosettes. The workshops will focus on text and textiles, echoing the practices of the women’s suffrage campaign, and the banners made will represent and celebrate the diverse voices of women and girls from different backgrounds.

Gwaith celf cyfranogiad torfol ledled y Deyrnas Unedig yw PROCESSIONS, i nodi 100 mlynedd y bleidlais i ferched, wedi’i gynhyrchu gan Artichoke a’i gomisiynu gan 14–18 NOW, yn seiliedig ar syniad gan Darrell Vydelingum.
Bydd PROCESSIONS yn gwahodd merched* a genethod ledled y Deyrnas Unedig i ddod at ei gilydd ar strydoedd Belfast, Caerdydd, Caeredin a Llundain ar ddydd Sul 10 Mehefin 2018 i nodi’r foment hanesyddol hon mewn portread byw, cyffrous o ferched yn yr unfed ganrif ar hugain. *y rheiny sy’n uniaethu fel merched neu’n an-neuaidd (‘non-binary’).
Yn rhan o’r digwyddiad mae sefydliadau Celfyddyd ledled y Deyrnas Unedig wedi’u haseinio i ddewis artist i ddylunio a gwneud baner ar gyfer yr Orymdaith ar Fehefin 10fed. O ganlyniad, mae cant o artistiaid sy’n ferched wedi’u comisiynu i weithio â chymunedau’r Deyrnas Unedig i greu baneri 100 mlwyddiant ar gyfer PROCESSIONS. Mae Canolfan Grefft Rhuthun yn falch o gyhoeddi ein bod ni’n un o’r sefydliadau artistiaid hynny sy’n cyfranogi yn y digwyddiad a’n prif artist fenywaidd fydd Lisa Carter.
Mae Lisa Carter yn byw ac yn gweithio yng Ngogledd Cymru. Bydd ei gwaith, er â’i wreiddiau mewn paentio a dylunio, weithiau’n cyfuno’r prosesau hun â cherfluniaeth a gosodiadau. www.lisa-carter.com
Fe wnaeth y merched – a ddaeth at ei gilydd ar y strydoedd gan mlynedd yn ôl – eu huanin yn weladwy â fflagiau, baneri, pinnau a rhosedi. Bydd y gweithdy’n canolbwyntio ar destun a thecstilau, yn adleisio arferion ymgyrch y bleidlais, a bydd y baneri a wneir yn cynrychioli ac yn dathlu lleisiau gwahanol gwragedd a merched o wahanol gefndiroedd.
