The radio documentary portrays the artist Josephine Dickinson in the North Pennines uplands of Cumbria. Deaf since childhood, she has developed a distinct way of listening that shapes both her life and her work. Everyday scenes—feeding animals, walking by the river, playing the carillon and the organ—are interwoven with her poems and reflections. The open form echoes her perception of her surroundings and her eventful life. The piece reflects on place and belonging, changes in the local ecology, and on listening beyond the ear.
