My Bad is Bedwyr Williams' largest solo exhibition to date and this accompanying catalogue presents the most comprehensive survey of his work.Williams observes the world with a sharp eye and wry humour. His work includes a wide range of media, including performance, sculpture, painting and photography.Drawing on his own personal narratives and family histories – from school days in a North Wales farming community to his experiences as an artist-in-residence – Williams has become known for sculpture and performance work reflecting on rural life, loss, memory and the folly of ambition.My Bad draws its title from an American vernacular phrase for admitting fault. The exhibition is comprised largely of newly commissioned installation and sculptural pieces, marking a departure from the artist's previous concerns with Wales and 'Welshness'.Published to accompany the exhibition Bedwyr Williams: My Bad at Ikon Gallery (16 May – 8 July 2012) and touring to Glynn Vivian Art Gallery, Swansea in partnership with Mission Gallery, Swansea (17 November 2012 – 6 January 2013).

"THIS IS EVERYTHING 1 published by Southwark Park Galleries brings together for the first time over 100 of Williams' drawings. The publication replicates the original scale of Williams' artworks, drawn habitually since 2018. His incisive drawings, often acerbic but always endearing, hilariously observe the pretence and politics of contemporary culture, especially that of the art world - whether it be the inner thoughts of an uber-curator or a buy-to-let landlord; Williams' drawings reveal the absurdity of our contemporary condition." -- Gallery website.
