The council would work with street artists and youth providers
Belfast council is to look at providing “street art walls” across the city in a bid to encourage “safe and legal” art and cut down on graffiti tagging.
“To encourage a vibrant street art culture in this city and help people to develop the skills required to realise this, the council believes that it is important to facilitate the creation of such art in a safe, legal and positive way, enabling creative expression through this medium and reducing the proliferation of antisocial graffiti.
“The council will also work with street artists and groups, youth providers and other partners to engage with people who could benefit from getting involved in street art and support mentoring and skills development to empower them to express themselves through this route. Sinn Féin Councillor John Gormley said: “I welcome the ambition set out in the motion, enabling creative expression and reducing the cost and impact of negative graffiti. Members will be aware that negative and antisocial graffiti is a source of great annoyance to many of our citizens and removal is both a challenge and a cost we could well do without.
“Secondly I would like the council to consider communities that have stepped up to the plate over the past number of years by re-imaging what are referred to as so-called “contentious” murals, be it of a paramilitary nature or whatever.
