The Dragon is coming out of his lair for “Emblems of Wales”, sponsored by Lord Dafydd Elis Thomas AM
To complement Draig, the ten-foot flying dragon, Margaret Berry has created a set of six large sculptures drawn from Welsh history spanning the last 1500 years. The show “Emblems of Wales” has taken three years in the making as a consideration of “representing Wales and its People” to fit the Welsh Assembly’s Pierhead building.

Her dragon has been sleeping in a box since a show at Cywain in Y Bala in 2011 and will next see the light on October 8th. “Draig” should be in good company with, among others, an eight-foot sky diving Llywelyn ap Gruffydd, a life-size tight rope walking Hywel Dda and a pensive armour-clad Owain Glyndwr considering stones gathered from all the counties of Wales’s varied and beautiful landscape.
