This new poetry walk is a collaboration between The John Hewitt Society and Irish Artist Richard Carr. It is located in the iconic Waterworks Park in North Belfast.
Geolocated around Swan Lake it presents a layered binaural field recording of the natural sounds found in the park with two poetry readings by Dr. Frank Ferguson of The John Hewitt Society. The first of these poems “A Local Poet” is found at the lower benches on the Queen Mary’s entrance side to the park and the second “Balloons and Wooden Guns” is located at the Armchairs sculpture at the far end of Swan Lake.
