In ‘TIR/LAND: a celebration of
Pembrokeshire’, Rhys and Janet Daniel have worked closely to produce
art work and poetry inspired by the land and issues they feel passionate about.
Rhys studied art in Cardiff and Swansea. He has
a successful track record as a visual artist and has exhibited in Britain and
abroad. He uses mixed media. His work is rooted in ancient Celtic landscape and
the natural world. Previous exhibitions have
explored his connection with the Welsh landscape; connections between the
sacred stones of Wales and Shetland, where he lived for a year; the world of
dreams and the unconscious, and the impact of climate change on our
environment. Rhys is also an
experienced art teacher with over 40 years work in schools and diverse groups
in the community.
Janet has written poetry, short stories,
travel, memoir, plays and a book about the year spent working in the Shetland
Isles.
Janet and Rhys met a long time ago on a
photography course in Barry. They have spent the last 35 years summering in a
tiny caravan travelling the breadth and depths of Pembrokeshire.
