Fel rhan o raglen gyhoeddus ein harddangosfa bresennol, MURMUR – arddangosfa unigol gan yr artist, gwneuthurwr ffilmiau ac awdur Anthony Shapland – rydym yn falch iawn o gynnal digwyddiad sgwrsio byw wyneb yn wyneb rhwng Anthony, y curadur gwadd Marie-Anne McQuay a Chyfarwyddwr Creadigol Tŷ Pawb, Jo Marsh. Gyda'i gilydd, byddant yn trafod themâu'r arddangosfa, gan gynnwys hunaniaeth 'queer' a dosbarth gweithiol mewn cymunedau gwledig ac ardaloedd ymylol (edgelands), yn ogystal â dynwarediad a rhith yn y byd natur a diwylliant, a'r ffyrdd y mae Anthony yn integreiddio ysgrifennu yn ei waith celf gweledol.
