“Golden Venture” Exhibition on tour this summer!
Saturday August 4th saw the opening of Jill Randall’s exhibition, “Golden Venture” .- An Artists Residency at Parys Mountain Copper Mine” at the brand new, award-winning Copper Kingdom Centre, Amlwch Port, Amlwch, Anglesey.
The Show runs from 4th August – 9th September 2012. 11am-5pm, closed Mondays.
This exhibition began in 2011 at the National Waterfront Museum, Swansea, and is currently touring to Amlwch as the inaugural exhibition at the new centre which won a Heritage Lottery Award.
“Golden Venture” documents Jill Randall’s 3-year Artists Residency at Parys Mountain Copper Mine, Amlwch, Anglesey, once the world’s leading centre of copper production, and includes drawings created in the inhospitable abandoned underground workings, prints etched in sulphurous pools, and sculptures inspired by the unusual geology of the site.
