The award-winning book The Lost Words uses stirring spell-songs and eye-catching illustrations to reintroduce the fading faces of nature to our vocabularies and in turn, inspire us to join the fight to reverse their plight. The exhibition will be fully bilingual in Welsh and English languages. The touring exhibition, which is organised by Compton Verney, with Hamish Hamilton and Penguin Books, will bring together, for the first time the original artwork by Jackie Morris alongside the English language poems by Robert Macfarlane and Welsh language poems written by Mererid Hopwood. The best-selling book The Lost Words will be brought to life at Oriel y Parc this year in an exhibition which explores the relationship between language and the living world, and of nature’s power to spark the imagination.
