Congratulations
Angharad Ffion Martin
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.

Angharad is learning about the complex and intertwined ecosystems of our most local environment - the Aberlleiniog woodland. She is creating a series of animal forms, light and sound sculptures created from natural and foraged materials, covered with semi-translucent naturally preserved leaves.

She has been experimenting with light and the translucency of leaves, layering colours and forms.  Her animal forms will be covered in a beautiful skin of these preserved and illuminated leaves.
