Description
Completed as part of the Elan Links artist residency in rural Wales 2018, this book is a creative and psychogeographic exploration of the Elan Valley. It was created through conversations with the landscape, its history and the people who live there: farmers, rangers, walkers, and the residents of Rhayader. Each location has been chosen to reflect the memories and stories shared through dialogues with residents. Following in the Welsh oral tradition, the stories are meant to be read aloud to your walking companion. The book is not your traditional guide but rather an invitation to explore the valley in a creative way, while enjoying drawings, stories, and metaphors that bring the landscape to life before your eyes.
Available in English and Welsh.
