An art project centred around Barclodiad y Gawres, a Neolithic passage grave in Anglesey, North Wales. Organised by Dr George Nash, who is the co-ordinator of the Ynys Môn part of the Gestart Project (Gesture in Art).

The Barclodiad y Gawres project has also awarded artistic commissions to silversmith Carol James, landscape artist Ian Mitchell, glassmaker Bill Swann and musicologists Ian Duggan and John Nash.

As part of an ongoing programme of work, the scientific element of the team are currently engaged in tracing six highly decorative stones that stand within the chamber. Expected to be completed by June 2015, culminating in an exhibition that will start at the Oriel Ynys Môn Museum in Llangefni and travel to selected venues in Italy, Portugal and Spain.
