WELL-KNOWN Welsh sculptor, Dilys Jackson, will give a talk to Art Central FRIENDS on Saturday, October 10.

Members of the public are also invited to attend the talk at 11am at Art Central Gallery, King Square, Barry.

Dilys Jackson has travelled and worked in Europe, America, Canada, United Arab Emirates, Scandinavian and Australia. She has undertaken commissions and residencies in the UK and Canada and has exhibited in Wales, England and Sweden and is presently showing her work in a ‘Retrospective Exhibition over the past 70 years’ at Art Central Gallery.

Dilys mainly uses metal and stone to realise forms from nature and the human body. These materials have an intrinsic weight and presence through which she explores both their mass and internal space, but also the shapes that derive from the perceived processes of growth or movement which appear to have formed them.

Art Central FRIENDS are really pleased that Dilys has agreed to talk to them. Refreshments will be available. New members are always welcome.

Art Central FRIENDS AGM will be held at Barry Island Community Centre, Friars Road at 7.30pm on Thursday, October 8. New and present members welcome.
