This approach to national identity and Wales' heritage is entirely characteristic of Rees' other works, which have regularly drawn from the particularities of his upbringing, his background and his place of birth. His response to place and time, as well as issues of memory, the everyday and, often, the context of art itself is used almost as a medium in its own right, in his diverse artworks that range from painting, drawing, sculpture and sound based pieces. Through a number of different approaches, amongst them packaging design, photography, sculpture and satirical cartoons, Kelp sees Wales' trade of seaweed and laverbread rethought, reconsidered, and appealing to the modern day consumer.
