Bob and Roberta Smith, one of the UK’s best known artists is pictured with Nisha Tandon from ArtsEkta at a workshop creating the final letters for an artwork to be temporarily installed on the East Lawn at Belfast City Hall. The work will be available to view from 6pm on 4th August with the public invited to illuminate it by candlelight in a moment of shared reflection at 10pm that evening. Bob and Roberta Smith is one of four leading international artists commissioned by 14-18 NOW, the cultural programme for the WW1 Centenary commemorations across the UK for LIGHTS OUT. The artwork which forms a statement made up of 100 individual characters, is part of the artist’s Letter to an Unknown Soldier.Picture by Brian Morrison
