NEL
Bio
Nel doesn’t like to talk about herself, but occasionally her art peeks out from behind a rock.
Returning home to Gower in 2000, Nel followed the revival of interest in drawing, seeking to define her own practice. Informed, also, by the Alexander Technique, she reframed drawing as, “a practice, a means to be present,” a conceit she explored on visits to Ardnamurchan, on the West Coast of Scotland. A sense of connection to land, sea and sky is vital to wellbeing, both ours and the world we inhabit, as is humility. Much of society seems out of touch. Current practice is to reaffirm her own sense of connection and try to understand the disconnect prevalent elsewhere.
Bywgraffiadau
Nid yw Nel yn hoffi siarad amdani ei hun, ond weithiau mae ei chelf yn edrych allan o'r tu ôl i graig.
Wrth ddychwelyd adref i Benrhyn Gŵyr yn 2000, dilynodd Nel adfywiad y diddordeb mewn lluniadu, gan geisio diffinio ei hymarfer ei hun. Wedi’i hysbysu, hefyd, gan Dechneg Alexander, ail-fframiodd luniad fel, “arfer, modd i fod yn bresennol,” syniad a archwiliodd ar ymweliadau ag Ardnamurchan, ar Arfordir Gorllewinol yr Alban. Mae ymdeimlad o gysylltiad â thir, môr ac awyr yn hanfodol i les, ein un ni a’r byd yr ydym yn byw ynddo, yn ogystal â gostyngeiddrwydd. Mae cryn dipyn o’r gymdeithas yn ymddangos allan o gysylltiad. Yr arfer presennol yw ailddatgan ei synnwyr o gysylltiad ei hun a cheisio deall y datgysylltu sy'n gyffredin mewn mannau eraill.
