Now Showing at Stiwdio Scratch: “Red String and Ravens”.
This is the latest exhibition from one of our talented young artists in Platfform, Rosalyn Faye Mortimer. The exhibition draws on her Chinese and Welsh heritage, exploring folklore as a meeting point between cultures. The work highlights myth, love and the enduring power of storytelling in shaping cultural identity.
We launched the exhibition on Thursday 19 September, welcoming more than 35 guests to hear from Roz directly and see her exciting new work. The exhibition is now open to the public at Stiwdio Scratch.
All of this is possible due to the Artist Hwb, a dedicated space for young people (18-30) and emerging artists to create, experiment and play. We support and commission young artists while offering them space and materials to develop their work here.
We know that studio space is expensive, and time for visual artists to create new work is limited. At Platfform, we want to address that. Artists in the Artist Hwb get:
-
Use of a dedicated visual arts space
-
A fee for their time
-
Access to a materials budget
-
The chance to exhibit their work at Wales Millennium Centre
We’ve had a range of artwork and exhibitions so far, from photography to portraiture, and are always open to new ideas. Sound like something you’d like to get involved in? Start by filling in this form.
Preference will always be given to young people who have come through our Platfform programme, but we’d also like to hear from young artists who are yet to do so. Art school not required!
