Bodfa Continuum Exhibition Concept

back to bodfa continuum

The title ‘Bodfa Continuum’ implies a continuous flow of time. Ideas and energies from the past are carried into the present and stretch out into the future. Time is malleable. It can stretch and compress. It can be layered and manipulated. This project proposes a deliberate engagement with time, using Plas Bodfa as a framework. A house is permeable structure, a container of memory, a lens into the past and a peak into the future.

This house has seen many things - the Women’s movement, WW2, businesses, families, concerts and commerce - a 100 years in 10 uneven chapters.

35 rooms filled with works from painters and printmakers, stitchers and sculptors, potters and pathfinders, sound artists and sun catchers, poets and pigment makers along with elements of augmented reality.

This immersive exhibition existed in the space between fiction and non-fiction, real and imagined, yesterday and tomorrow.
