'Haearn' (the Welsh word for Iron) forms part of a joint exhibition that uniquely combines Antonia's modern day colour study of the corrugated iron woven through the fabric of the rural Welsh landscape, with Pete Davis’ classic Black and White prints from his early 1980‘s series ‘Great Little Tin Sheds of Wales

Haearn sets out to record what remains of these structures before they disappear entirely.
