Writers, including poets Michael Longley, Paul Muldoon and Bernard MacLaverty, have been randomly paired with visual artists, such as Michael’s daughter, Sarah Longley, Peter Anderson and Ross Wilson.

You can discover exactly how and why they were inspired at the exhibition in The Belfast Room from 14th October.
