Our forthcoming show ‘Hiraeth’ opens on 24th March from 2-5pm - all are welcome and warmly invited to the opening of the exhibition.

Hiraeth continues until 5th May and we are open 10-5pm: Friday - Sunday.

Hiraeth is a Welsh word that has no direct English translation. However it’s likened to a homesickness tinged with grief and sadness over the lost or departed… A blend of homesickness, nostalgia and longing, "hiraeth" is a pull on the heart that conveys a distinct feeling of missing something.

Hiraeth by Livia

I have a hiraeth
To be back
At the place nestled in mountains
Covered in snow
Illuminated by the bright sunlight

I have a hiraeth
To be where
The people listen
And sing around campfires
The flames crackling in the cold air

I have a hiraeth
But it will always be one
I could never fully reach
The wondrous, incredible
Magic.

I have a hiraeth
To be back home
Where the air is always fresh
And the nights always starry
Where there are no worries

Where I am meant to be
