Meeting of Styles x Belfast
Belfast’s most notorious peace wall is destined to become an unlikely world artistic attraction after 33 renowned international graffiti artists transformed it with their trusty aerosol cans.
The plethora of sectarian and anti-social slogans that covered the wall which divides the Shankill and Falls Roads have been buried under a colourful and kaleidoscopic masterpiece — all 600 yards on the Shankill side — by the artists who converged from faraway places like Australia, California, Germany and Poland, as well as Dublin, Dundalk and Belfast itself.
The 33 ‘Meeting of Styles’ artists finished off the ribbon of artistry which was begun at Easter when 18 aerosol experts started it off by covering the first 200 yards of erstwhile eyesore wall which was constructed at the start of the Troubles to keep the warring communities apart.
