Ward 23, Phase 2, Our Place
As part of Glasgow Life’s Creative Communities Artists in Residence programme for Ward 23, Partick East/Kelvindale, Fiona Miller from Tricky Hat Productions delivered Round Our Place, building on connections established during Phase 1.
During lockdowns, isolation, and shifting restrictions, Fiona worked with people from across the community to gather personal reflections on the local places that mattered most to them. Participants shared memories, stories, and reflections, which were transformed into a GPS-triggered sound walk.
Each stop on the route featured a unique audio story and immersive soundscape. The trail led listeners through parks, hidden paths, post-industrial spaces, community gardens, bowling clubs, and other locations filled with memory, sanctuary, and hope.
