Trade union mural

The Duncairn area of north Belfast is marked by interfaces where high security fences separate neighboring communities. Near this dividing line sits a mural painted on a wall that captures the history of local workers. This artwork focuses on the legacy of the Belfast dockers and their struggles for better conditions. It reflects a time when thousands of men lined up daily at the port to find work, a practice that disappeared as container shipping changed the industry in the late twentieth century.
