The Resilient River of Creativity: A Journey Through i fyny
As an emerging artist, my journey through the i fyny programme felt like navigating a river of creativity with its gentle streams and turbulent rapids.
i fyny: Mentorship
i fyny: Mentorship
As part of the I Fyny journey we each received three sessions with a mentor. They helped us with ideas and grounding our artistic practices alongside our Wednesday sessions of developing our professional practices. Something which I really wanted to develop in my practice is this idea of how painting can be translated through a sculptural lens. This is why I was excited to have Lisa Evans as a mentor. She is the head of Sculpture at Carmarthen School of Art and has a wealth of knowledge in casting, specifically iron pouring. Through our three sessions we explored casting, projects, and plans for the future.
