An open evening was held at the Old Barns studio on 30th March and Sebastien showed the next stage of the Statue, which is nearly ready to be sent to a Foundry to be cast in Bronze.

We will keep you advised on further developments.

Ground works on the site on Penrhip were completed in 2009 and the Plinth for the Statue is in place as is the seating area.

The sculpture will be designed and built by the Internationally Renowned sculptor Sebastien Boyesen, who lives in Llangrannog.  Links to some of Sebastien's work can be seen by following the links below. http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/top-stories/2009/04/06/vision-of-haunting-memorial-to-miners-who-died-in-pit-disaster-115875-21257211/# http://www.wigan.gov.uk/pub/planning/art-trail/no6.htm During a visit to Llangrannog in October 2009, we were delighted to be asked to view the work that Sebastien has completed to date and some of the Photographs are shown below. (Please note that the photographs show the Statue in Clay form and further refinement will be done before a Rubber mould is made and then cast in Plaster. Further refinements will then be carried out before the Statue is cast in Bronze. Sebastien hopes that the bronze casting will be done by Christmas 2009)
