Gayle Rogers
ARTIST & RESEARCHER
ABOUT
I have been working in the arts for over 30 years.
As an artist I draw cartoons, narrative art & illustrations
& I lead creative workshops and events.
As a researcher my specialism is sports history and commemoration,
specifically the 1958 Munich Air Disaster.
I manage the Workers Gallery in South Wales, where I have had my studio since 2014.
ARTIST
My interest is in creating engaging visual narratives that make academic research, testimonies or complex histories more accessible to a wider audience. I work on personal projects, collaboratively with other creatives and to commission.
RESEARCHER
My research considers commemoration, particularly that of my ancestor Duncan Edwards.
He was a Busby Babe, Manchester United and England footballer who died after being injured in the 1958 Munich Air Disaster.
