Writing on the Wall

Posted by Stephen

“One Year in Liverpool” is the name given to a project by Stockholm artists collective A-APE. The project will last for the whole of the year and will be engaging the residents of Liverpool and visitors to the city as they go about their business. Buildings and public spaces will be adorned with slogans designed to question beliefs and evoke emotions in order to gauge the opinion’s of the average Liverpudlian.

The project will manifest itself in a series of installations that will spread through unexpected locations in the city centre to reveal the bigger picture.

The A-APE website is currently hosting a questionnaire containing 10 questions, the answers to the questions will enable statistics to be gathered about how the average Scouser currently feels about life, their city and other peoples’ perception of the city. At the end of the year, when all the questions have been asked, the answers will be collated and published in a newspaper supplement to give a clearer picture of how people feel about living in Liverpool.

Answering the questions will only take a minute of your time and once you have submitted yours you will be able to see the overall level of opinion at this time.
