Here is a selection of paste-ups on the hoardings around the War Memorial building in Waring Street, inspired by Leo Boyd’s attempt to create an unofficial paste-up wall. (See Paste No Paste-Ups.)
The piece above relies on two homophones, “nai” (“now” in a strong Belfast accent) and “nigh”, and, “sigh” and “scythe”.
In addition to pieces by Boyd (web), there are works by Lazer Eyes (web) (“In the gears, the machine”), Codo (ig) (“Every test is a lesson; every lesson is a blessing”), Szu Szu Sign Co (ig) (“There will never be a border between us”), Dragos (ig) (Imagine Balkans creatures), and RickyDrewAPiccy (Fb) “The End Is Nai” and “Cranes – they’re everywhere. She’s got cranes on her walls … now she’s got cranes in her soul.”
