SKATEBOARDING DAY at Pontio

This is short documentary film I co-produced with FFoto Nant as part of an arts residency at Pontio arts space in Bangor, North Wales. The residency culminated in a large window drawing and exhibition which included photographs of the community skate day from local photographers – see more details here https://ballawaves.com/project/skate-pontio/
