So Much Talent

6 Mar
Alyson

By Alyson Williams

I have been putting together an exhibition for International Women’s Day at Cinema & Co and I’m honoured to be working with so many talented, creative and enterprising women. I’ve focused on creativity in a broader sense, including entrepreneurs Anna Redfern, who runs the unique cinema,  Goggi Shazi who is providing a pop up kitchen and Laura Niehorster who has designed and is marketing Proud Pads. And applied arts are represented by Claudia Mollzahn, Tina Wisby and Alyson Williams. Although I think that there’s often an artificial distinction between Fine and Applied arts. Tomorrow, I’ll talk about the talented performers who are coming along to the opening of the exhibition on Thursday (March 8th) from 18.00.

Proud Pads

7 Nov

I spent a lovely morning helping fellow Swansea artist and designer, Laura Niehorster, in her new enterprise, Proud Pads. Laura needed a hand cutting out the material to make a new batch of her eco-friendly re-usable sanitary pads. I think it’s a brilliant idea and they look really fun and funky too.
