In 1971, during a riot in west Belfast, a British soldier fires a rubber bullet at Republican protesters. Later, a young woman goes for a walk, finds the bullet and decides to make a sculpture from it.
Making art from conflict is an act of resistance, empowerment and love.

"There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening which is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist." —Martha Graham

Also just want to say that I do not own the art, I simply thought it was beautiful and wanted to share it with the world.
Absolutely all credit and ownership belongs solely to the adjoining artists.

🖤 The Blackout Poem I Never Thought I’d Make
He left a hostile comment about being trans, then blocked me. I turned it into a poem. Art lasts longer.

The acronyms of paramilitary organisations are written on the bullet. On the left, written in orange is ‘UDA, Vanguard’ and ‘LAW’ and on the right, ‘UVF, Tartans’ and ‘UFF’. In the centre written in green is CRA, SDLP, IRA and Fianna. At the top, written in yellow is ‘away and rattle your bin’. The three words written on paper and stuck to the front say, ‘Love from Brian’ (Faulkner, the last Prime Minister of Northern Ireland).
In Belfast, 1971 a nun finds rubber bullets in the street after rioting ends and uses them to make art for her 5 sisters, (there weren't enough for her 8 brothers!)
This nun is my aunt and she inspired me to make art in times of war, so I write songs and give the royalities to the cause. #ArtNotWar
