Artistic Creations from ILA-WALES Art Workshops in Swansea. For the past few years, the dynamic Iberian and Latin American community (ILA-WALES CIC) in Swansea has come together monthly at the Glyn Vivian workshops to celebrate creativity, culture, and connection. Artistic creations from ILA-WALES Art Workshops in Swansea reflect the vibrant energy and unity of this community. Led by Patricia McKenna, with co-artist Ruth Abreo engaging children in parallel activities, these sessions have empowered participants to delve into diverse artistic expressions.
Adults and children alike have explored mediums ranging from hand-crafted books and animal masks to intricate monoprints and self-portraits. These workshops have fostered an inclusive atmosphere where 25 adults and 20 children could bond, learn, and express themselves freely. Supported by the dedicated efforts of Vivienne and Ana, the sessions were not only about art but also about building friendships and community resilience.
Artistic creations from ILA-WALES workshops in Swansea showcase the diversity and passion of this remarkable community. These artistic creations from ILA-WALES workshops in Swansea are a testament to the participants’ creativity and dedication. A stunning selection of their artwork is currently exhibited at the Glyn Vivian Gallery, inviting the public to celebrate this collective creative journey until January 2025. This exhibition highlights the rich artistic talent and collaborative spirit that defines the ILA-WALES CIC initiative.
