About this Event

Starting point: Aberystwyth Cliff Railway*

The landscape can speak to us... if only we are willing to listen. This guided workshop will encompass a gentle walk in which participants will be encouraged to observe and absorb their surroundings. Maybe we will hear the starlings click and whistle, smell the sea foam or notice the hue of the castle ruins. We will interact with the landscape through both words (poetry and prose) and drawing and mark-making. Participants will have opportunity to write and draw the landscape and to make the everyday extraordinary, and will leave with a small booklet full of their own creations.

*In extreme weather (e.g. heavy rain), we’ll explore imaginative and remembered landscapes in the School of Art.

Important note: please make sure to check the weather in advance and bring suitable clothing and footwear.

Man cychwyn: Aberystwyth Rheilffordd y Graig*

Gall y dirwedd siarad â ni... os ydyn ni’n fodlon gwrando. Bydd y gweithdy tywys hwn yn dechrau gyda thaith gerdded hamddenol lle gaiff y sawl sy’n cymryd rhan eu hannog i arsylwi ar ac amsugno’r amgylchedd o’u cwmpas. Gyda'n gilydd byddwn yn clywed y drudwy yn clicio ac yn chwibanu, yn arogli ewyn y môr neu’n sylwi ar arlliw adfeilion y castell. Byddwn yn rhyngweithio â’r dirwedd trwy iaith a chelf, gan feddwl am yr hyn y gall ein hamgylchedd ei ddweud wrthym a sut y gallwn ymateb. Caiff y sawl sy’n cymryd rhan gyfle i ysgrifennu a darlunio'r dirwedd a throi’r cyffredin yn rhywbeth rhyfeddol, a byddan nhw’n gadael gyda llyfryn bach yn llawn eu gwaith creadigol nhw.

*Mewn tywydd garw iawn (e.e. glaw trwm), byddwn yn archwilio tirweddau o'r gof a'r dychymyg yn yr Ysgol Gelf.

Nodyn pwysig: gwnewch yn siŵr eich bod yn gwirio'r tywydd ymlaen llaw ac yn dod â dillad ac esgidiau addas.
