About Cardiff West
‘About Cardiff West’ was a community arts project commissioned by Cardiff Dance Festival. Choreographer Joanna Young, composer Jamie McCarthy and filmmaker Simon Clode worked with students from Ty Gwyn School, Woodlands High School and Michaelston Community College to create a dance film that explored the ideas around mapping, creating our own unique record in movement, sound and film of the Cardiff West area.
To find out more or to see the film please email Joanna Young or Cardiff Dance Festival.
