The festival will run from the 10th - 20th of October, 2013 where you can catch live painting across Roath. There will be a tour of the completed works starting from the Poets Corner on City Road on Sunday 20th at 3pm.
Our aim is to
bring colour, culture and vibrancy to the city of Cardiff by creating an outdoor gallery of public murals. In a city dominated by high street
retail chains, we believe that the area of Roath can sing for the individuality
of Cardiff.
By combining 12 local and
international artists through the global language of Street Art we aim to add
to the cities cultural heritage and create an environment that reflects the
vibrancy of it’s people and places. The streets form an essential platform for bringing local communities
together. We wish to invite and support artists whose main aim is
to communicate with everyday people and embrace the chance to reach out to a
boarder audience by utilizing these public spaces.
· Empty Walls public art project was formed to create a wider platform for
emerging artists to create contemporary art in accessible public spaces across the area of Roath. The project is bound to the celebration of creativity
and the democratisation of urban art, aiming to transform Roath into
an open-air gallery where local and international artists will unite their
talents in the most creative of manners.
