MESKLA | Brewyon Drudh, #1 A Conversation With Bards

Language, authenticity and the Celtic revival are among topics discussed when Sovay is joined by Grand Bard, Pol Hodge, Deputy Grand Bard, Jenefer Lowe and Cornwall Council’s Principle Culture Lead, Mark Trevethan, for the first episode in the MESKLA | Brewyon Drudh 2022 podcast series.

 

MESKLA | Brewyon Drudh (tr. Mussel Gathering | Precious Fragments) is a multi-platform project using sculpture-making and conversation to explore contemporary Cornish cultural identity. To find out more please visit www.sovayberriman.co.uk/MESKLA-Brewyon-Drudh.

 

Through workshops, podcasts, a symposium and an exhibition the project invites people to share their experiences of identity and Cornwall, and their views on Cornish culture and its relationship to land, language, heritage, tourism, the Cornish diaspora and much more. 

 

These podcasts record conversations between me, Sovay Berriman, and guests whose research or lived experienced touches on the project themes. The views, thoughts, and opinions expressed are the speaker’s own. All conversations are carried out with a spirit of generosity and openness, creating space for the discussions to twist and turn.

 

Please note: These podcasts were recorded in different locations and with a range of equipment. As such the sound quality varies and at times external factors are more present than ideal in the recordings.
