Man Made Mountains
A collaborative piece between artist Bob Mitchell and film maker Jonny Maxfield, set in the stunning industrial landscape of North Wales. Huge photographic images up to 50 ft high are displayed as installations in former industrial sites and shown with time lapse photography. Once vast, the industry remains in just a few areas, but the landscape created is testament to hundreds of years of slate mining.
This project was supported by Arts Council Wales, Gwynedd Council, Snowdonia National Park, The National Slate Museum, Llechwedd Slate Caverns and Tudor Lodge, Porthmadog.
