will put the spotlight on emerging photographic artists living and working in Wales this summer with a new series of exhibitions and events.

Entitled Wish You Were Here, the exhibitions will run over the summer months and will take place at Ffotogallery's base in Turner House in Penarth iand also their new off-site temporary arts space at The Dairy in Pontcanna, Cardiff.

The first exhibition in the series is by Cardiff-based artist Dawn Woolley and begins tomorrow, while the preview evening takes place tonight.

Woolley's Visual Pleasure examines the act of looking and being looked at; the artist questions how we interpret what we see and how meaning is created by social regulation, expectation and desire.
