About Us
We are a family of artists, at the core are the Roberts family, with an extended family of artists who help make things happen.
The (C.I.A.) currently exists in Gwynedd, West Wales (where the residencies take place), Derbyshire, Midlands England and we are extending into the Netherlands.
We create, curate and produce a range of objects, exhibitions, films and experiences.
When you visit us, Jonny, Sally and our dogs Alwyn (a Labradoodle), Libby and Phoebe (Jackapoo), you will stay in The School House. We are always happy to share our home with other artists and understand the need to make art as we both have over thirty years experience as artists, and educators.
We regularly exhibit/show/preform nationally and internationally, so we both travel around, but we do like to personally welcome you to Ysgoldy and we like our home to be your home for the duration of your stay.
Future plans:
We are working towards a more self-sustaining lifestyle, with the development of a woodland vegetable garden, moving chickens into the woodland and in the planning stage of building a sunny drawing room in the garden.
