The Wooden Boulder is one of David Nash’s most celebrated series of works. It began in 1978 when he was asked to remove a damaged oak near his home in Blaenau Ffestiniog. From the felled tree he carved a spherical shape and decided to take it to his studio using the nearby stream. There began an ongoing relationship, plotting and drawing its journey and disappearances in the river Dwyryd for over 40 years.

Y Clogfaen Pren yw un o weithiau enwocaf David Nash. Y flwyddyn 1978 oedd man cychwyn y gwaith pan ofynnwyd iddo symud derwen oedd wedi’i ddifrodi ger ei gartref ym Mlaenau Ffestiniog. Cerfiodd siâp sfferig o’r golfen oedd wedi ei dymchwel a phenderfynu ei symud i’w stiwdio gan ddefnyddio nant gyfagos i’w thywys. Yno cychwynnodd berthynas barhaus dros ddeugain mlynedd a mwy yn dilyn a darlunio ei siwrnai a’i ddiflaniadau yn yr afon Dwyryd.
