Diffusion is Cardiff’s international festival of photography, and proves exactly that, as it kicks off the month with perhaps not a bang, but certainly a flash.<\/p>\n

Spanning all of October, the annual festival takes place in a number of venues across Cardiff, and hosts a variety of exhibitions, events, performances and screenings.<\/p>\n

Its theme for this year is Looking For America, and explores the meaning of the American Dream in relation to Wales, America and the world as a whole.<\/p>\n

Emma Sanders, a regular Diffusion volunteer, said: \u201cIt\u2019s really great to see how the festival engages people who would never normally even think about photography as being a form of art.\u201d<\/p>\n

Venues for the festival can be found in the city centre\u00a0and Cardiff Bay.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
