Amazing new artwork has started to appear in Swansea city centre as part of a project aiming to celebrate the very best of what the city has to offer. A visual art project called 'From Swansea, With Love' has been created to celebrate the city's redevelopment and to mark the opening of Swansea Arena.
The artwork features beautiful phrases, celebrating the city and its music, sunshine, art, creativity, memories and its coastline, contributed by musician, author and broadcaster Cerys Matthews, broadcaster Huw Stephens, actor and comedian Keith Allen, actor and singer Luke Evans, actor, producer and activist Michael Sheen and musician Rachel K Collier.
Taking inspiration from the people of Swansea, the phrases have been brought to life via illustration and animation. The visual art appears on poster sites, digital screens and hoardings across the city, in addition to screens at Swansea Arena and two hand-painted murals from creative agency Fresh Creative. It joins plenty of other public artwork around Swansea that you pass every day and probably don't notice. You can read more about that by clicking here.
