Thursday 19th May
10am - 11.30am
WAHWN is committed to supporting and showcasing new and emerging creative health practitioner talent in Wales. Join us for our June network meeting to hear from USW MA Arts Practice (Arts Health & Wellbeing) and Wrexham University MA Arts in Health students presenting projects on themes of nature, self-care, health, wellbeing and health inequalities.
Lauran Wilkinson’s ‘Felt and Blood’
A project which taps into the hidden properties of textiles to support the experience of women living with endometritis.
Nia Skyrme’s ‘Mother Tongue and I’
Working with refugees and asylum seekers, supporting community, equality, Welsh language and cultural participation as part of a wider USW and City of Sanctuary collaboration.
Katie Henderson – ‘The Glucose Diaries’
Katie has been exploring how art and creativity can support her daily life living with Type 1 diabetes and its complications, and her project addresses the overwhelm caused by the demands of the condition and focused on how creative engagement supported behavioural change and improved self-management.
Sophia Leadill – ‘Locations of Concern’
Work from ‘The Wrexham General Project’ with Transport for Wales, 3 Counties Connected Communities Rail Partnership, and groups from The Wallich, Housing Justice and KIM Inspire; and ‘The World Heritage Site Art Project’ at Pontcysyllte Aqueduct with The Canal and River Trust. Both the rail network and the aqueduct are identified by local NHS mental health services as ‘locations of concern’. (Trigger warning: Please note that the issue of suicide is mentioned briefly and sensitively in relation to this work, as it is central to the context of the project.)

Dydd Iau 19ed Mis Mehefin
10am-11.30am
Mae WAHWN yn ymrwymo i gefnogi ac arddangos talentau ymarferwyr iechyd creadigol newydd sy’n ymddangos yng Nghymru. Ymunwch â ni yng nghyfarfod rhwydwaith mis Mehefin i glywed gan fyfyrwyr USW MA Ymarfer Celfyddydol (Celfyddydau, Iechyd a Llesiant) a Prifysgol Wrecsam MA Celfyddydau mewn Iechyd yn cyflwyno prosiectau ar themâu natur, hunanofal, iechyd, llesiant ac anghydraddoldebau iechyd.
Lauran Wilkinson: ‘Felt and Blood’.
Prosiect sy’n edrych ar nodweddion cudd tecstilau i gefnogi profiad menywod sy’n byw gydag endometritis.
Nia Skyrme: ‘Mother Tongue and I’.
Gwaith gyda ffoaduriaid a cheiswyr lloches sy’n cefnogi cymuned, cydraddoldeb, y Gymraeg a chyfranogiad diwylliannol fel rhan o gydweithio ehangach rhwng Prifysgol De Cymru a Dinas Noddfa.
Katie Henderson: ‘The Glucose Diaries’.
Mae Katie wedi bod yn edrych ar sut y gall celfyddyd a chreadigrwydd gefnogi ei bywyd bob dydd wrth fyw gyda diabetes Math 1 a'i gymhlethdodau, ac mae ei phrosiect yn ymdrin â’r lludded a achosir gan ofynion y cyflwr gan ganolbwyntio ar sut y cefnogodd ymgysylltu creadigol newid mewn ymddygiad a gwella hunan-reoli.
Sophia Leadill – ‘Lleoliadau sy’n Peri Pryder’
Gwaith ‘Prosiect Cyffredinol Wrecsam’ gyda Thrafnidiaeth Cymru, Partneriaeth Rheilffyrdd Cysylltu Cymunedau Tair Sir, a grwpiau o The Wallich, Cyfiawnder Tai a KIM Inspire; a ‘Phrosiect Celf Safle Treftadaeth y Byd’ yn Nhraphont Pontcysyllte gyda’r Ymddiriedolaeth Camlesi ac Afonydd. Mae’r rhwydwaith rheilffordd a’r draphont wedi’u nodi gan wasanaethau iechyd meddwl lleol y GIG fel ‘lleoliadau sy’n peri pryder’. (Rhybudd sbardun: Nodwch fod hunanladdiad yn cael ei grybwyll yn gryno ac yn sensitif mewn perthynas â’r gwaith hwn, gan ei fod yn ganolog i gyd-destun y prosiect.)
