In 2017 I had a hand in helping the purchase by the Contemporary Art Society for Wales of Aberfan: 21st October 1966/Nos Da, Cariad X, a gloved wreath by the textile artist Rozanne Hawksley. Rozanne had been very moved by the 50th commemorations of the Aberfan disaster, and this was her response. The piece, with its web of black beads and netting holding a torn child’s mitten, is now in the collection of the National Museum of Wales, in Cardiff.
