"Meaningful Moments" is a collection of artworks I exhibited at Clwb y Bont for the pART of Ponty Art Trail, an annual event across Pontypridd and Ynsangharad Park, which displays artwork made by USW Creative and Therapeutic Art Students for their final graduate show. The artworks celebrate the diverse creativity amongst the students and have participation, engagement, accessibility and wellbeing at their core.
The five artworks in my collection encapsulate stories shared by people I've met at Clwb y Bont and highlight the venue's versatility and meaning in different people's lives. I invite you to watch the video, spend a moment with the images and audio, and listen to the shared stories. I encourage you to consider the importance of your social spaces, community groups or local venues such as Clwb y Bont. You can share your story with someone, plan to join or revisit a particular community group, visit somewhere new, and continue creating moments and stories to share.
I want to thank Clwb y Bont for being superb hosts and those who took the time to sit and have a chat with me about their Clwb y Bont story, without which this artwork could not exist.
