With support from ArtPower Belarus, Following Adamovich’s Footsteps was developed as a cultural project dedicated to preserving the memory of Belarusian writer, journalist and public figure Ales Adamovich.
The project centres on Hlusha, the village where Adamovich spent his childhood. An interactive audio trail with seven stops was developed around places connected to his life, family and local history. Through memories, quotations and stories, listeners can discover the environment that shaped the writer and gain a fresh perspective on his life and work. The audio guide is narrated by Belarusian actor Aliaksandr Zhdanovich.
A website dedicated to Adamovich’s legacy was also created, offering access to the audio guide and links to a Telegram bot and mobile app. Visitors can follow the route on location in Hlusha or explore it remotely.
Following Adamovich’s Footsteps continues the work of the civic initiative Adamovich Stop, which helped establish the world’s first monument dedicated to the writer in Hlusha in 2019. The project also marks the lead-up to the centenary of Adamovich’s birth in 2027.
