Malarky Biography

Malarky is a cooperative of multi-skilled artists based in South Wales. Andy O'Rourke the co-ordinator is a visual artist who has been designing and creating carnival costumes for the last 12 years. Malarky may be found stomping around in giant costumes or making medieval armour with a hoard of primary school warriors. Chris Wood, Gawaine Webber and Dom Williams bring their varied skills such as welding, wood turning and graffiti and a rich imagination when it comes to transforming a room full of treasure and junk into vibrant pieces of art; Malarky delivers great art.
