\nSimon Whitehead\u2019s project marks 70 years since the beginning of the devastating bombing of Swansea during the Second World War and most notably the Three Nights Blitz of 1941. Using a series of aerial photographs of the city taken by the Luftwaffe the artist has navigated wartime Swansea and created two maps that invite the participant on walks through the city and on Kilvey hill. These walks act as a palimpsest, revealing how these spaces have been reabsorbed into Swansea\u2019s present landscape and folklore, using a mobile phone at specific viewpoints, the walker may hear voices recalling another time and place.
\nMaps are free and available from the National Waterfront Museum and Swansea Museum or download one here:

\nMae prosiect Simon Whitehead yn coff\u00e1u 70 mlynedd ers dechrau bomio difrodus Abertawe yn ystod yr Ail Ryfel Byd ac, yn benodol, y Blits Tair Noson ym 1941. Gan ddefnyddio cyfres o awyrluniau o\u2019r ddinas a gymerwyd gan y Luftwaffe, mae\u2019r artist wedi llywio Abertawe yn ystod y rhyfel ac wedi creu dau fap sy\u2019n gwahodd y cyfranogwr ar deithiau cerdded trwy\u2019r ddinas ac ar Fynydd Cilf\u00e1i. Mae\u2019r teithiau hyn yn gweithredu fel palimpsest gan ddatgelu sut mae\u2019r mannau hyn wedi\u2019i hailamsugno i dirlun a ll\u00ean gwerin presennol Abertawe. Gan ddefnyddio ff\u00f4n symudol wrth olygfannau penodol, efallai bydd y cerddwr yn clywed lleisiau sy\u2019n adalw amser a lle arall.
\nMae\u2019r mapiau am ddim ac maent ar gael o Amgueddfa Genedlaethol y Glannau ac Amgueddfa Abertawe.
