The Two of Us
Tuesday 4 November to Wednesday 26
November
A brief glimpse into the lives of Sol Jorgensen and her son Seth
who suffers from hypotonia and learning disabilities. This
exhibition features beautifully crafted and sometimes painfully
draw images by Sol together with her intimate poetry directly from
the heart of a full time carer.
Isabel Hitchman, Senior Visual Arts Officer for the Arts Council
for Wales for twenty-five years says:
"I thought the works were powerful, moving, disturbing and
deeply thought provoking, as well as being beautifully
drawn"
First shown at Butetown History and Arts Centre in June 2008 for
Carers Week, the exhibition was kept on unitl August due
to the positive response from the public.
The exhibition will close at Art Central just before Carers
Rights Day on December 5 which is a day to promote the rights of
unpaid family members, friends or relatives who provide substantial
care to someone who would struggle to live independendtly without
them.
