25 Years Of Resistance

Extramural Activity1 Comment

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.

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.

Free Derry

Free Derry Corner in red, with two new murals behind it: on the left, The Petrol Bomber, on the right, a 25th anniversary mural of Battle Of The Bogside. Lecky Road, Derry.

From Oona Woods’s Seeing Is Believing (plate 14), the red-and-yellow wall was … “A temporary transformation in 1994 by artist Colin Darke who painted the wall a socialist-related red and yellow to engender dialogue about its origins and current role in the community.”
