From the 23rd March to the 5th April, Liverp was ignited by the stunning River of Light Tr displayed eleven beautiful art installations the Royal Albert Dock and Liverpool One. curated by Culture Liverpool and Visit Liverp by Arts Council England, and provided a free encapsulating outdoor journey for locals to lockdown when most entertainment venues and e closed for some time. The installations were day and night during the two-week display, but came alive after the sun set each evening and the sculptures were lit up, exposing their incredible electric beauty in the blackness of night. The trail formed a loop around LiverpoTalking ol’sHea hads ndsome waterfronAbsorbedtBy Light and a map could be found online at visitliverpool.com (right). The map was also posted on boards throughout the trail itself. Despite the cold evening winds* the trail was a truly magical experience and lit up the darkness of the lockdown with some wonderfully spectral displays of modern art.
*unfortunately two of the installations - 'Make A Here' - were closed when I visited due wind damage.
