Dive into the natural world with four short audio plays about the words, myths and memories that shape our connection to place.
In our digital era, and our times of climate change, these works are by turns lyrical, funny and heartfelt explorations of the age-old relationship between language and landscape.
Two pieces are in English, and two pieces are in Welsh.

Archwiliwch i mewn i fyd natur gyda pedair drama sain fer gyda’r pwyslais ar y geiriau, y chwedlau a’r atgofion sy’n llunio ein cysylltiad i rywle. Yn ein hoes ddigidol, a’n cyfnod o newid hinsawdd, mae’r gweithiau hyn yn eu tro yn archwiliadau telynegol, doniol a chalonogol o’r berthynas oesol rhwng iaith a thirwedd.
Mae dwy ddrama yn Saesneg, a dwy ddrama yn Gymraeg.
