Huge thanks to local artist Roy Guy for donating this amazing stained-glass style painting to the Nephrology and Transplant ward at the University Hospital of Wales. Entitled, "Going For the Line", the piece captures a famous moment in the 2013 #WALvENG #Sixnations clash. Recognise anyone @bbcScrumv @Welshrugbyunion @SamWarbs?⠀ ⠀ #art #artist #contemporaryart #artwork #design #instaart #wellbeing #artinhospitals #visualart #artistsoninstagram #paintingoftheday #rugby #sport #Wales #WRU #contemporarypainting #creative #artexhibition #artgallery #artistoninstagram #instagramartist #illustragram #illustratorsofinstagram #instapainting #artistsofig #artistsofinstagram #instagramart
This is a detail of one of several pieces of work by renowned Welsh artist Dilys Jackson currently on display as part of "Diverse Imaginations" at the Hearth Gallery in Llandough Hosptial. We've got a few more projects with Dilys planned so keep your eyes peeled for more exciting news in the future!⠀ ⠀ #art #artist #contemporaryart #artwork #design #instaart #wellbeing #artinhospitals #visualart #nature #artistsoninstagram #abstractart #fineart #creative #artsy #handmade #artoftheday
Currently on display in the Hearth Gallery at Llandough Hospital is an incredible exhibition called "Diverse Imaginations". We were incredibly privileged and honoured to welcome The Welsh Group, one of the foremost contemporary art groups in the country to the gallery and hope that you get the chance to go and take in this wonderful show, which is running until the first week of March. ⠀ ⠀ #art #artist #contemporaryart #artwork #design #instaart #wellbeing #artinhospitals #visualart #nature #artistsoninstagram #abstractart #fineart #creative #artsy #handmade #artoftheday #drawsomething #paintingoftheday #contemporarypainting #creative #artexhibition #artgallery #artistoninstagram #instagramartist #illustratorsofinstagram #instapainting #artistsofig #artistsofinstagram #instagramart
As part of the #LoveBarryHosptial project with @healthcharity, we've also secured local musicians @HarmoniCymru to come and play to the people on the wards at Barry Hospital. We're really looking forward to them starting these sessions and bringing the joy of music to some of those who need it most. ⠀ ⠀ #HarmoniCymru #Guitar #Clarinet #Hospitals #Wales #Cymru #music #musicinhospitals #art #artinhospitals #arttherapy #song #singing
There's only a month to go until the #CardiffLifeAwards, which we're immensely proud and grateful to be finalists for in the Health and Wellbeing Category, sponsored by @Cardiff_Blues. We're only a small team of 4 people who achieved a heck of a lot in 2018 and to be recognised with an award like this would be the icing on the cake! A big shout out to all of our collaborators, partners, fundraisers and artists who helped make this happen - if you think we should win, please let @cardifflifeawards know 😁🤞 ! ⠀ ⠀ #art #artistsofig #artistsofinstagram #instagramart #artinhospitals #contemporaryart #visualart #awards #winners #healthandwellbeing
This time last week, we were helping to launch the #LoveBarryHospital campaign by unveiling the newly renovated Mary Lennox Suite with @healthcharity. As part of this project, we commissioned local textile artist @Hafweightonartist to develop an enormous tapestry entitled "A View Of Barry". Here's just a tiny detail of the incredibly impressive piece. You can find out more about the process behind it by visiting Haf's profile and make sure you pop into the Mary Lennox Room to have a look next time you're in Barry Hospital!⠀ ⠀ #art #artistsofig #artistsofinstagram #instagramart #contemporaryart #visualart #textile #textileart #sewing #embroidery #quilt #instaart #artistoninstagram #instagramartist
