maintenance project _ liam e poulson
In the March of 2025 I swept every single footpath in Bellahouston Park. A testament to the site’s past, present and future upkeep.
An industrial archeology of sorts, I underwent a period of study focused on park and city maintenance. With no luck getting through to the Glasgow City Council directly, I focused on more basic technologies.
The performance took place over 3 days – of which 4 hours was recorded – edited down and overlayed with the 8th century Anglo-Saxon poem ‘The Ruin’ to create Caretaker.
