In Oriel Fach, Natalia Dias, a second year ceramic student in West Wales School of Art, Carmarthen has created an amazing piece of work called the ‘Golden Dome’ which consists of over a hundred ‘canisters’ made in smoked fired clay and gold lustre, suspended at varying heights to give the effect of a cloud. This beautiful image however has a serious message about global warming. This young artist, originally from Portugal was studying in Ireland before taking up the BA ceramic course in Carmarthen, and her passion and commitment will surely guarantee a successful future.

On the stairs, the photographs of Sian Boissevain capture the autumnal golds and atmospheric scenes of dawn and dusks in various countries. Sian loves to travels and is an avid photographer. She has selected this small collection and it brightens up the stairways at this gloomy time of year and spreads warmth to the viewer.
