RUSS CHESTER
Art has been a journey which has lasted all my life, but which took on a new importance when I moved to Wales in the late 1970s. Since that move, I have worked mainly outdoors, initially on local farms then eventually further afield around Gwynedd and Anglesey. I am aware of the complex pattern hidden in my surroundings and have been lucky enough to see parts of Wales not many people have access to; the far corners of fields, lost little lanes, into farmyards and into peoples' lives. I know the cold, I know drenching rain, I know summer heat, I know weather, I know the seasons, I know the light, I know the trees, I know what stone looks and feels like, I know the countryside and the lay of the land.
