EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the magnificent sight of a colossal dragon crafted entirely from recycled marble, proudly perched on the hillside in Blaenllechau. A symbol of creativity and sustainability, this awe-inspiring environmental arts project was brought to life through the joint efforts of the Welsh Development Agency and the Blaenllechau Community Regeneration Group. The village residents hold high hopes that this remarkable endeavor will place their quaint rural community firmly on the tourism map. Standing tall against a backdrop of rolling hills and picturesque landscapes, this dragon sculpture is a testament to both artistic ingenuity and environmental consciousness. Created by talented artist Mark Fraser during August 1997, this masterpiece showcases his ability to transform discarded materials into something truly extraordinary. The use of recycled marble not only adds an element of uniqueness but also highlights the importance of repurposing resources for sustainable development. As we delve into this snapshot from the 1990s, we are reminded that art has no boundaries when it comes to making a positive impact on society. This dragon's presence serves as a reminder for visitors and locals alike about our responsibility towards preserving nature while embracing artistic expression.
