Lifted by Beauty: Adventures in Dreaming at Rhyl / Y Rhyl
March 31, 2017 at 6pm to April 2, 2017 at 6pm
Rhyl is a town of many tales; a treasure trove of stories. Drawing upon Rhyl and its people as inspiration, Lifted by Beauty: Adventures in Dreaming is a voyage of discovery and memory, a collision of the past and the present; celebrating a place and a people on the cusp of change and transformation. This is an experience that will lead you on a walkabout, taking in the surprising places and spaces of Rhyl. Together we can imagine and dream. Mae’r Rhyl yn dref llawn straeon; trysorfa o…See More

I Am Scared - an experiment in VR/360
Late last year I was fortunate to be awarded a Creative Wales Award from the Arts Council Wales.
Im interested in the 3rd Industrial Revolution and what roles art can/will play in the revolution.
As a part of my award I proposed to make three artistic responses throughout the year, creating something that is inspired by what I have learnt up to that point.
I have just spent a week creating the first response, A VR/360 video…

Hi there Gavin
Hope you're well.
I have just noticed your post regarding RATS and am extremely interested.
My NTW page is nothing to go by, in fact this is the first time i have looked at it in a while, tending to get my online-found jobs from Spotlight.
I would love to apply for this and audition. I have a huge love for hiphop and am very knowledgeable about it. I also practice combat and martial arts and am a professionally trained dancer as well as actress.
Rhian Lewis put me on to NTW years ago after watching a performance i was in.. She may remember me :)
I can't wait to hear back from you and hopefully arrange an audition.
Bye for now
