This autumn Ruthin Craft Centre presents an extensive exhibition of the best in contemporary wallpaper.
Wallpaper is the biggest commitment we make to design in our homes. It is a statement of colour and patternity bigger than any other. And more than anything else, the wallpaper we choose instantly communicates our taste.
For craft makers, wallpaper is a huge canvas that requires many stages of design, planning and making. Modern digital printing techniques have allowed new designs of wallpapers to be manufactured, designs that rely less on repeats than traditional wallpapers. But as this exhibition will show, many makers are drawn to traditional hand screen or lino printing techniques for the different quality of finish they allow.
This exhibition will explore and celebrate the hand printed techniques of wallpaper production, showcasing the most exciting designers and makers across the UK who champion a return to this better quality of wallpaper production. 23 makers will be on show in the exhibition, including hand–blocked beauties by octogenarian designer Marthe Armitage, St Jude’s delicate, illustrative wallpapers and Mini Moderns’ graphic wallpaper lusciousness.
Curated by design historian and writer Jane Audas and curator, lecturer and retail consultant Gregory Parsons, most of the wallpapers in this exhibition are designed and made in the UK.

Yr hydref hwn bydd Canolfan Grefft Rhuthun yn cyflwyno arddangosfa helaeth o’r gorau mewn papur wal cyfoes.
Papur wal yw’r ymrwymiad mwyaf rydym yn ei wneud i ddylunio yn ein cartrefi. Mae’n fwy o ddatganiad am liw a phatrymwaith nac unrhyw beth ac yn fwy na dim, mae’r papur wal ddewiswn yn cyfleu ein chwaeth.
I’r gwneuthurwyr crefft, mae papur wal yn gynfas enfawr gyda sawl cam wrth ddylunio, cynllunio a gwneud. Mae technegau argraffu digidol modern wedi caniatáu i bapur wal gyda dyluniadau newydd ei weithgynhyrchu; dyluniadau sy’n llai dibynnol ar ail-adrodd patrwm na phapur wal traddodiadol. Ond fel y dengys yr arddangosfa hon, mae llawer o wneuthurwyr yn cael eu denu at dechnegau argraffu sgrîn llaw neu leino traddodiadol oherwydd y gwahanol fathau o ansawdd gorffeniad maent yn caniatáu.
Bydd yr arddangosfa hon yn archwilio a dathlu technegau cynhyrchu papur wal wedi’i argraffu â llaw, gan dalu sylw i’r dylunwyr a’r gwneuthurwyr mwyaf cyffrous ar draws y DU sy’n eiriol dychwelyd i’r ansawdd gwell hwn o gynhyrchu papur wal. Dangosir gwaith 23 o wneuthurwyr, gan gynnwys rhai bloc-llaw hardd gan y ddylunwraig yn ei wythdegau, Marthe Armitage, papur wal darluniadol cain St Jude a phapur wal graffig gorhyfryd Mini Moderns.
Wedi’i churadu gan hanesydd dylunio ac awdur Jane Audas a’r curadur, darlithydd ac ymgynghorydd manwerthu Gregory Parsons, mae’r mwyafrif o’r papur wal yn yr arddangosfa hon wedi’i ddylunio a’i wneud yn y DU.
