Mewn partneriaeth â Chymrodoriaethau Creadigrwydd, Sefydliad Diwylliannol Prifysgol Abertawe

12.12.20 – 14.02.21, Oriel Gelf Glynn Vivian, Abertawe

Yn 2019, lansiodd Sefydliad Diwylliannol Prifysgol Abertawe'r Cymrodoriaethau Creadigrwydd cyntaf, a gynlluniwyd i roi’r cyfle i artistiaid o unrhyw ddisgyblaeth greu gwaith newydd a ysbrydolir gan ddarn o ymchwil academaidd. Dangoswyd chwe phrosiect ymchwil ar-lein a chyflwynodd dros 400 o artistiaid, ysgrifenwyr a pherfformwyr geisiadau ar gyfer y cymrodoriaethau. Enw un o'r rheini oedd Peter Matthews, artist yr oedd ei waith ardderchog a'i fethodoleg yn adlewyrchu diddordebau a phryderon astudiaeth y biolegydd môr Dr. Ruth Callaway o amgylcheddau arfordirol.

Mae'r gwaith newydd yn yr arddangosfa'n dangos datblygiad a chyfeiriad newydd ac amlwg yng ngwaith Matthews. Mae'r pandemig byd-eang, sydd wedi bod yn rhan o'n bywydau eleni, wedi newid llwybr y gymrodoriaeth hon.
Mae'r gwaith newydd hwn, a wnaed ym Mae Abertawe ac ar hyd arfordir yr Iwerydd yng Nghernyw, yn cynnwys cerfluniau, gwaith ar bapur a ffilm a phaentio. Hefyd gwnaed gwaith yn uniongyrchol o glai ym Mae Abertawe. Caiff y gwaith hwn ei arddangos ynghyd â nodiadau a thrafodaethau rhwng Callaway a Matthews.


Mae Oriel Gelf Glynn Vivian yn rhan o Ddinas Abertawe ac fe’i cefnogir gan Gyngor Celfyddydau Cymru.

In partnership with Creativity Fellowships, Swansea University’s Cultural Institute

12.12.20 – 14.02.21, Glynn Vivian Art Gallery, Swansea

In 2019, Swansea University Cultural Institute launched the inaugural Creativity Fellowships, designed to give artists of any discipline the opportunity to create new work inspired by a piece of academic research. Six research projects were showcased online and over 400 artists, writers and performers applied for the Fellowships. One of them was Peter Matthews, an artist whose extraordinary work and methodology immediately seemed to speak to the interests and concerns of marine biologist, Dr. Ruth Callaway's study of coastal environments.
The new works in the exhibition present a marked and tangible new development and direction in Matthews’s work. The global pandemic, that has been present in all our lives this year, has, of course, changed and altered the course of this fellowship.
Working in and around Swansea Bay, and on the Atlantic coast of Cornwall, these new works span sculpture, works on paper, to film and painting. Work has also been made directly from clay in Swansea Bay. This sits alongside notes and exchanges between Callaway and Matthews.

Art Gallery is part of the City of Swansea and supported by the Arts Council of Wales.
