Y Tylwyth Teg | Doubles and dance trapeze
When you pass through the woodland of yew trees, there’s bottomless waterfall where the Tylwyth Teg inhabit. Go ahead, don’t be deceived, beware the dancing place of the fairies.
Annwn (The underworld) is a twilight zone, a universe filled with illusion, not made to make sense. Poised turns into possessed as the Tylwyth’s real identity shows through their changeling appearance.
Inspired by the folktales, that are woven into the Welsh landscape, the veil between myth and reality wears thin; you might even see double.
