Ceridwen Powell

Originally from Bradford, West Yorkshire, I came to Mid-Wales in 1983 to study English at Aberystwyth University.  Upon graduating, I spent time travelling in the UK and Europe, returning to Aberystwyth in 1988.  I moved to Powys in 1998 and am now well-settled in Montgomeryshire. 

I am interested in shape and colour and how they can express ideas and emotions.  I have had no formal art training, but instead experiment with ideas and materials and take an instinctive approach.  I am an abstract artist and enjoy working in a variety of media.  I am developing my work in mixed media, using reclaimed and recycled materials.  Much of my work explores disability issues.  In the current political climate, disabled people are increasingly demonised, and I feel that it is important that disability artists are a voice for disabled people in these troubled times.  I also often explore social and environmental issues.  I use the artist name Ceridwen Powell to reflect my adopted Welshness, and am inspired by the colours and shapes of the beautiful Montgomeryshire landscape, and Celtic myths and legends.
