Rianna Sutton’s Etifeddiaeth explores a Welsh identity in a modern society. Through vibrant portraits set against the dynamic landscapes of Wales, Sutton begins to challenge conventional preconceptions and stereotypes often associated with Welshness. The carefully curated attire serves as a tool to highlight and subvert these preconceived notions, creating a striking juxtaposition between the diverse individuals, their clothing, and the environment.
Etifeddiaeth, meaning heritage, embodies a sense of pride deeply embedded in Welsh identity, a pride that continually evolves in significance. The pride within the images comes from the celebration of each individual’s uniqueness, allowing the distinct personalities that makes up a Welsh identity to radiate through, emphasising what binds them - Wales.
