Wales: A Home from Home, multimedia exhibition will come to Cardiff Central Library (3rd floor) next Friday 16th Jan and Sat 17th Jan 10 am till 4 pm. A multi-media Exhibition that includes Immersive Video and Immersive Reality.
We have spoken with people whose ancestors walked to Wales from Italy in the 1920s, Yemeni families who lost loved ones while supporting the D-Day landings, and Iraqi Kurds who settled here in the 1970s. We’ve met Sikh doctors who arrived in the ’70s and Hindus who came from India via Kenya. More recent arrivals include Syrians fleeing the devastation of war, Ukrainians families forced to leave everything after the Russian invasion, and Hong Kongers seeking refuge as their freedom of speech was curtailed.
All of these individuals call Wales “home,” and they have remarkable stories to share. For them, Wales is a “Nation of Sanctuary,” providing a safe place for their families. We have recorded and collected oral histories, portraits, archives, videos, 3D models and immersive 360° video.
These powerful stories have been shared in primary schools, additional learning needs environments, and community groups. Workshops have combined traditional arts with cutting-edge digital technology, including virtual reality. – ends
Cymru: Cartref o Gartref
Cymru: Cartref o Gartref, arddangosfa amlgyfrwng, yn dod i Llyfrgell Ganolog Caerdydd (y trydydd llawr) ddydd Gwener 16 Ionawr a dydd Sadwrn 17 Ionawr, 10am–4pm. Arddangosfa amlgyfrwng sy’n cynnwys fideo trochi a realiti rhithwir / realiti trochi.
Rydym wedi siarad â phobl y cerddodd eu hynafiaid i Gymru o’r Eidal yn y 1920au, teuluoedd Yemeniaidd a gollodd anwyliaid wrth gefnogi glaniadau D-Day, a Chyrdion o Irac a ymgartrefodd yma yn y 1970au. Rydym wedi cyfarfod â meddygon Sikh a gyrhaeddodd yn y 1970au, a Hindŵiaid a ddaeth o India drwy Kenya. Ymhlith y rhai a gyrhaeddodd yn fwy diweddar mae Siriaid yn ffoi rhag dinistr rhyfel, teuluoedd Wcreinaidd a orfodwyd i adael popeth ar ôl ar ôl goresgyniad Rwsia, a phobl o Hong Kong yn ceisio noddfa wrth i’w rhyddid mynegiant gael ei gyfyngu.
Mae pob un o’r unigolion hyn yn galw Cymru’n “gartref”, ac mae ganddynt straeon rhyfeddol i’w rhannu. Iddynt hwy, mae Cymru yn Genedl Noddfa, gan ddarparu man diogel i’w teuluoedd. Rydym wedi recordio a chasglu hanesion llafar, portreadau, archifau, fideos, modelau 3D a fideo 360° trochi.
Mae’r straeon pwerus hyn wedi’u rhannu mewn ysgolion cynradd, lleoliadau Anghenion Dysgu Ychwanegol, a grwpiau cymunedol. Mae’r gweithdai wedi cyfuno’r celfyddydau traddodiadol â thechnoleg ddigidol flaengar, gan gynnwys realiti rhithwir.
