Time For Peace, Time To Go

A Cormac cartoon is reproduced as a mural by Mo Chara Kelly: the ceasefire means that doves (“Time for peace”) can/should be carrying British soldiers (who themselves recognise it is “Time to go”) from Ireland (tricoloured, with dolmen) to Britain (with Union flag) over the Isle of Man.

Fág Ár Sraıdeanna

Mural on Whiterock Road, Belfast, bidding “Slán Abhaıle” to a British soldier standing on Whiterock Road (with Who Fears To Speak Of Easter Week? in the background). To the left and right, four demands from during the (first) ceasefire: “End collusion, Release POWs, Disband RIR RUC, End Unionist veto”. The second image shows “Free Catalonia” graffiti on the pavement wall.

25 Years Of Resistance

The main image – of women banging bin lids at the approach of British Army soldiers – is complete and the “25 years: time for peace, time to go” stencil is being added at the bottom. Still to come, the title at the top: “Falls/Clonard – 25 years of resistance”.

The circular logo was designed by Robert Ballagh (Circa 1994, p. 22).

For the completed work, see the Paddy Duffy Collection. The top third of this mural was still visible in 2017.

End British Collusion

A pair of hands with shirt-cuffs of the Union flag and Ulster Banner jointly point a pistol at a republican mother carrying a cross through a graveyard and field of bullets. A line of documents show the forces of the state (B-Specials, UDR, RUC) colluding with loyalist paramilitaries. Oakman Street, Belfast.
