Angharad Williams: Picture the Others

19 Feb-12 Jun 2022

Mostyn
Llandudno LL30 1AB

Overview

Picture the Others is the first institutional solo exhibition by Welsh artist and writer Angharad Williams. This new commission will consist of a large-scale installation presented across MOSTYN’s gallery spaces and will include film, painting, sculpture, and text.

Power, control, and violence underpin Williams’ work and are brought into tension with a sense of mundanity, intimacy and humour. These complex semiotic threads seek to reflect on the relationship between the individual and wider societal structures.

The exhibition will be accompanied by live elements such as a performance and workshops in addition to a reading room titled The Wig that includes film, writing and publishing by the artist and other contemporary artists.

Angharad Williams is an artist living in Ynys Môn and Berlin. Recent solo exhibitions include High Horse, Kevin Space, Vienna (2021); Without the Scales, Schiefe Zähne, Berlin (2020); Witness, Haus Zur Liebe, Schaffhausen (2019); Island Mentality, Peak, London (2019); and Scarecrows, LISZT, Berlin (2018). Her work has been included in numerous group exhibitions including: Jerwood Arts, London (2021), Stadtgalerie Bern (2021) and Kunstverein Munich (2020). Performances have taken place at KW Institute for Contemporary Art, Berlin (2020); ICA, London (2019); and Radiophrenia, Glasgow (2017).
