Literary Atlas would like to invite you to attend the launch of the Cartographic Imaginaries Exhibition at the Senedd.

At this event, Professor Jon Anderson (Cardiff University) will introduce Literary Atlas, a project which created innovative digital maps of the relations between English-language works of Welsh literature and their unique Welsh settings (www.literaryatlas.wales). The artists in the Cartographic Imaginaries exhibition were commissioned to re-interpret the rich 'literary geographies' of twelve of these works. The result was a collection of exciting new artworks spanning numerous forms, from contemporary cartography, to photography, soundscapes, and film. The artist Seán Vicary will introduce his own film, 'Sitelines', a response to the literary geography of Alan Garner's novel The Owl Service (1966). Refreshments will be provided.
