CAROLINE REES

​Paper Artist / Arlunydd Papur

Mandy Nash
I am a surface designer and have been designing and cutting stencils for many years - first for printed textiles, then for architectural sandblasted glass and currently for paper. I love simple, bold and graphic imagery and am inspired by primitive art, Scandinavian textiles, my Welsh heritage and the beautiful Gower landscape where I am based, all mixed up with a love of illustration and design. Although I gained recognition for my distinctive architectural glass, undertaking large scale commissions for public and private spaces and meeting the Queen with my work, it is the hands on, simple and traditional technique of paper cutting which I currently find most gratifying.

With just a scalpel, paper and cutting mat I create contemporary and humorous images which are designed to make you smile
.


Rwy'n ddylunydd sy’n gweithio ar arwynebau  sydd wedi bod yn dylunio a thorri stensiliau am flynyddoedd lawer - yn gyntaf ar gyfer tecstilau printiedig, yna ar gyfer gwydr pensaernïol sydd wedi cael eu sgwrio â thywod ac ar hyn o bryd, ar gyfer papur. Rwyf wrth fy modd â delweddau syml, beiddgar a graffig ac rwy'n cael fy ysbrydoli gan gelf gyntefig, tecstilau Llychlynnaidd, fy etifeddiaeth Gymreig a thirwedd hardd Gŵyr lle rwyf wedi fy lleoli, sy’n cymysgu â chariad at ddarlunio. Er fy mod wedi cael cydnabyddiaeth am fy ngwaith gwydr pensaernïol nodedig, gan ymgymryd â chomisiynau ar raddfa fawr ar gyfer mannau cyhoeddus a phreifat a chwrdd â'r Frenhines gyda fy ngwaith, y dechneg ymarferol, draddodiadol o dorri papur yr wyf yn ei mwynhau ar hyn o bryd.

Gan ddefnyddio cyllell, papur a mat torri yn unig, rwy'n creu delweddau cyfoes a doniol sydd wedi'u cynllunio i'ch gwneud chi'n gwenu.
