Gwlad Aur / Kultamaa / Golden Land
This exhibition marks the 10th anniversary of the Finnish/Welsh Artists exchange programme, which has been run by Maija Helasvuo (Finland) and Marja Bonada (Wales) since 2013.
Over the years, the programme has involved a wide range of Welsh and Finnish artists and has held exhibitions in Wrexham, Berlin, Hyvink盲盲, Lappeenranta and in 2021, in H盲meenlinna, the home of Ars-Hame, whose work will now be seen in Swansea for the first time. The title 鈥淜ultamaa鈥� (Golden Land) refers to the county of H盲me, where Ars-H盲me are based. It is affectionately known as the Golden Land, because it is a very beautiful part of Finland, where a lot of arable crops such as wheat, corn and barley are grown.
Ars-H盲me is an organisation of professional artists, which promotes art activity in the community. Similar to Elysium Gallery in Swansea and Undegun Arts in Wrexham, they also provide affordable studio space for their members.
