'Hilbre Independent Biennial Introduction'
Meet the artists and visit Hilbre Island.
2nd April 2025.
Hilbre Independent Biennial, marks the first workshop & event by artist, 'Lucinda Hermida'.
This marks the beginning of 'Re-imagining Hilbre' an event part of 'Drawing Out Hilbre Archipelago'. I am very excited to be part of the Hilbre Independent biennial 2025 for the first time and to connect with people through art and nature on the upcoming workshops I am hosting. The outcomes of the workshops will inform legacy artworks which I will create, to be exhibited on Hilbre Island in June. The first workshop we discovered the landscape of Hilbre through an audio tour, recorded the rock formations with different materials, created collages and exchanged our experiences. All these aspects of the day contributed to the deep mapping of Hilbre - an experimental and meaningful way of journeying a particular site, and therefore, connecting with nature meaningfully.

'R S Thomas Triptych'
Acclaimed Artist Terry Duffy’s ‘RS Thomas Triptych’ to be Installed at St Hywyn’s, Aberdaron June 12–15, 2025.
The internationally acclaimed artist Terry Duffy has been invited to install his large-scale masterpiece, the RS Thomas Triptych, upon the altar at St Hywyn’s Church, Aberdaron. This historic installation takes place in the very church where the renowned Welsh poet and Nobel Prize nominee, the Reverend RS Thomas, served as preacher in his final years.
The triptych, inspired by Thomas’s poetry and themes of the ‘Abyss’, reflects Duffy’s long-standing engagement with the poet’s work and Welsh cultural identity. Originally created for the commemoration of RS Thomas in 2001 at the Welsh Academy in Cardiff, this powerful artwork has since been exhibited at significant venues, including the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool.
As part of the 11th Poetry & Arts Festival celebrating RS Thomas & ME Eldridge, Duffy will present an exclusive talk exploring the inspiration behind the triptych and the intersection of poetry, art, and philosophy.
Key Event Details:
📅 Poetry & Arts Festival: June 12–15, 2025
🎤 Terry Duffy’s Talk: Friday, June 13, 2025 | 12:15–1:00 PM
📍 Venue: St Hywyn’s Church, Aberdaron
The festival will also feature a rich programme of poetry readings, musical performances, and discussions, celebrating RS Thomas’s literary legacy and the wider themes of science, theology, and creation.
This unique event will appeal to art enthusiasts, poetry lovers, cultural scholars, and those interested in the profound artistic and philosophical questions raised by RS Thomas’s work.
