Congratulations
Mai Thomas
Commission and Micro-residency
These special commissions embed the selected artists and creatives within their host organisations - inspiring creativity and exchange. Their commissioned work will be presented during the 2026 Aberlleiniog Sculpture Trail.
Mai is spending time with the erratics of Lleniog Beach, learning their origin stories and understanding their complex material makeup. Her monumental scale drawings will be created from natural pigments derived from the landscape itself.
She has begun processing some of the material that she has foraged so far. The long meditative process of soaking, pulverising and grinding the sentiments into smooth, rich pigments. The Lleiniog pigment collection is well under way!
