Artist gwrando a chynhyrchydd celf gymunedol sy’n gweithio gyda naratifau wedi’u seilio ar le, ecoleg a chymunedau gwledig. Rwy’n gweithio’n ddwyieithog ac yn gwrando ar iaith a thirwedd. Ymgysylltydd Cymundeol ac Cynhyrchu Ymgysylltu. Gwrando’n addasol ar gymunedau a’u tirweddau, gan greu canlyniadau cydweithredol ar draws disgyblaethau a ffurfiau celf. Ac hefyd yn cynhyrchu ymgysylltu a chelf gymunedol ar raddfa fawr. Wedi’i arwain gan le, rwy’n helpu cymunedau i adrodd eu straon eu hunain, wedi’u siapio yn y ffyrdd maen nhw’n eu dewis. Rwy’n gweithio ar draws sain, ffotograffiaeth, mapio, celf ddigidol a pherfformiad. Mae fy ymarfer yn foesegol, yn dosturiol ac wedi’i wreiddio mewn ymddiriedaeth.

Rwyf wedi gweithio gyda phawb o ganfyddwyr metel, ffermwyr a chlybiau gwau i ysgolion a grwpiau ecoleg, yn lleol ac yn rhyngwladol. Dwi’n creu ar y cyd ar y stryd, mewn siopiau, pob man. Mae fy ngwaith yn teithio, ond mae’n aros wedi’i wreiddio’n gadarn mewn lleoedd gwledig, mewn ymddiriedaeth a gofal. Yn gwrando’n addasol ar gymunedau a’u tirweddau er mwyn creu canlyniadau cydweithredol sy’n cael eu hadrodd ar draws disgyblaethau amrwyiol. Trwy gofal a gyda gofal.

I’m a listening artist and community art producer working with place-based storytelling, ecology and rural communities. I work bilingually and listen to language and landscape. Listening authentically and adaptively to communities and their landscapes to bring outcomes that are collective and told across disciplines and art types. I produce engagement and community art at scale. My approach grows in space sometimes over decades. Led by place I help communities to tell their own stories shaped in the ways they choose; across sound, photography, mapping, digital art and performance. My practice is ethical, compassionate and grounded in trust.

I’ve worked with everyone from metal detectorists, farmers and knitting clubs to schools and ecology groups, and have taken this work into international projects and collaborations. I work where people are and create in spaces like the street, mountain tops and work with everyone I meet. While my practice travels, it remains rooted in rural places and long-term ways of working through situated facilitation, which is an emergent relational led adaptive process. Through care and with care..
