M.E. Workshop Show
Lower Gallery / Yr Oriel Isaf
The second exhibition features work by Young People with M.E. (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome) not able to attend school and often isolated by their illness. This workshop, funded by the Arts Council of Wales, was unique in that participants took part without leaving their homes. Photographer Suzanne Greenslade, who herself has recovered from M.E., visited the young people who created a visual diary of their lives and experiences. The body of work produced is poignant, giving voice to years of frustration and illness.
Mae'r ail arddangosffa'n dangos gwaith gan Bobl Ifanc ag M.E. (Syndrom Blinder Cronig) nad fedrant fynychu ysgol oherwydd eu salwch. Mae'r gweithdy yma, a ariannwyd gan Gyngor Celfyddydau Cymru, yn unigryw gan i'r rhai a gymerodd ran wneud hynny heb adael eu cartrefi. Ymwelodd y ffotograffydd Suzanne Greenslade, sydd ei hunan yn gwella o M.E., â'r bobl ifanc a greodd ddyddiadur gweledol o'u bywydau a'u profiad. Mae'r corf o waith a gynhyrchwyd yn ingol, ac yn rhoi llais i flynyddoedd o rwystredigaeth a salwch.
