“It’s a great relief that I haven’t regretted a single letter.” National Poet of Wales, Hanan Issa, and former National Poet and the source of our building’s iconic inscription, Gwyneth Lewis, came together to talk words, inspiration and legacy. With days to go until the architectural plans were heading to the builders, Gwyneth Lewis wrote the iconic words that would forever be emblazoned across our building. In this exclusive interview with Hanan Issa she discusses how the building itself provided inspiration, alongside Wales’s industrial past and a mythical cauldron from the Mabinogion. Filmed at Wales Millennium Centre in 2024 / Daeth Hanan Issa, Bardd Cenedlaethol Cymru a Gwyneth Lewis, cyn Fardd Cenedlaethol Cymru a bardd ein harysgrif eiconig, ynghyd i drafod geiriau, ysbrydoliaeth a gwaddol. Gydag ond dyddiau i fynd nes bod cynlluniau’r penseiri’n mynd at yr adeiladwyr, fe ysgrifennodd Gwyneth Lewis y geiriau eiconig sydd i’w gweld ar flaen ein hadeilad. Yn y cyfweliad arbennig yma gyda Hanan Issa mae hi’n trafod sut yr ysbrydolwyd hi gan yr adeilad ei hun, gorffennol diwydiannol Cymru a phair hudolus Ceridwen yn y Mabinogi.
