Eileen Allan

Eileen Allan with Regeneration

For over 30 years I have walked past the Welsh Chapel on Harbour Road in Barry without pausing, until the day I was shocked into sudden stillness by the sight of a caged chapel. Over night, apparently, the building was completely encased in scaffolding and bright turquoise coloured webbing, leaving only the square tower uncovered and jutting into a blue sky. The result was a visual rush that prompted the painting, 'Regeneration' for exhibition in the
Washington Gallery.
