The brain behind it is dancer Marega Palser, who is one half of the performance duo Mr and Mrs Clark, which she operates with her husband Gareth Clark.

The pair both starred in ' play on location in Barmouth last year, For Mountain Sand and Sea, curated by Marc Rees.

This time Palser, also an associate director of , has devised a work that is site specific and combines dance, drawing, animation and printmaking.

The idea behind it is that the way a drawing is created and the use of mark making can influence the way a movement develops. But turning this on its head, Palser is also fascinated by how dance can power the impulse to draw.

She herself has a foot in each camp, having trained at the London School of Contemporary Dance and studied Fine Art at UWIC.

She says: "It is the link between the world of visual art and dance that I am interested in and how the drawing together of these two mediums can expand and create a niche that attracts an audience from these two areas."

The exhibition is a collaboration with some of Wales' most accomplished movement artists, Catherine Bennett, Belinda Neave and Rosalind Brooks.

It operates as a live piece and develops ideas created during an Arts Council Creative Wales Award.
