Notes: Peter Bodenham graduated from Camberwell School of Arts with a BA(Hons) in Ceramics and 3D design before obtaining an MA in Fine Art and Critical Studies at UWIC, Cardiff. His wall-mounted carved love spoons incorporate landscapes and drawings. They play with ideas of identity, nature and 'being at home', and represent a tension and struggle between the human agent and the land. The Welsh title translates as 'Inhabit'.
