Digital Streams Exhibition

The latest Diigital Streams exhibition is now up in the lovely Whitewalls Gallery in the Waterfront Museum until the 17th of February. Again, the project has taken a group of local Swansea residents out and about, exploring and photographing some of Swansea's awesome waterways and their surrounding environments.
Over 5 weeks, the group visited some well known, and less well known places, looking at the different habitats and the flora and fauna that thrive there.

Week 1 saw us walking down the old Swansea Canal from Treboeth to Clydach (see left), whilst week 2 was spent exploring the beautiful RSPB wildlife reserve at Cwm Clydach.
Week 3 took us out to the man made lakes at Llansamlet - Pluck and Fendrod, week 4 saw us exploring the nature reserve at Dunvant Brickworks, and the final week was spent walking down the Clyne Valley to Clyne Gardens.

We found plenty to like about the rivers and lakes we visited, and with the help of the Natural Resources Wales officer who accompanied us, were able to understand a bit more about the issues of pollution and flooding that can affect them so much,  as well as finding out about the life to be found in, on and around the water.
