Roz Moreton is currently developing a new series of work, 'Language of Landscapes’, funded by the Arts Council of Wales Creative Steps research and development grant.

Through extensive creative research over 12 months in 2024 working in area of the post industrial landscape of the old Carmarthen Bay Power Station in Burry Port, Carmarthenshire, South Wales.

Investigating the landscape, through the mapping of coastal activity from nature and human beings. The work will investigate the human connections with the landscape, especially those of the disabled, examining pathways ‘to empower’ those voices, to express feelings and responses to the coastal space.

Collecting and exploration of natural objects; sea debris, plants and plastics and in response, create land elements using textiles, drawings, film & photography that tell personal stories of the of land and sea.

She is supporting this process through her own lived experience as a disabled person. Looking at this with a dyslexic mind, eyes, and voice.
