Following the opening of STORIEL on the evening of 29 January, one of the oldest and newest museums and galleries in Wales, there is now an opportunity to come to meet the artists and hear them talk about their work. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

The first exhibitions to be seen there include works by Iwan Gwyn Parry and Vivienne Rickman-Poole who have both been inspired by the waters of Snowdonia. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

Iwan Gwyn Parry’s series of paintings explore the artist’s preoccupation with water as a literal and imaginary metaphor.
