Teacher’s talk with David Nash / Sgwrs i Athrawon gan David Nash




David Nash gave teachers a unique opportunity to have a walk through with him to discuss his exhibition in Mostyn and the various aspects of his artworks. Teachers and Nash discussed the skills he uses that could be transferred into the classroom and the different approaches to sculpture. It was an extremely inspirational talk and we would like to give a big thank you to David and all the teachers who attended.

Rhoddodd David Nash gyfle unigryw i athrawon gerdded drwy ei arddangosfa gydag e gan drafod ei gyflwyniad yn Mostyn ynghyd â gwahanol agweddau o’i waith. Cafwyd trafodaeth rhwng yr athrawon â Nash am ba sgiliau oedd yn addas i’w trosglwyddo i’r dosbarth a gwahanol ymdriniaeth tuag at gerflunwaith. Roedd yn sgwrs arbennig o ysbrydoledig a hoffwn roi diolch mawr i David ac i’r athrawon fynychodd.
