In Tyrrau Mawr, Bedwyr Williams takes the Welsh landscape painting tradition and reimagines it in a not too distant future as gleaming glass buildings spring up all over a lush valley. Bedwyr Williams is known for satirizing the relationship between the artist and curator by creating absurd scenarios for them to appear in. He has explored, through video, themes of dystopia and mankind’s significance in the universe. He was shortlisted for the Film London Jarman Award 2015 and represented Wales at the 55th Venice Biennale. Subscribe to Random Acts: https://bit.ly/2OnqXLs #RandomActs #ShortFilm #Wales
