A new exhibition focusing on the experience of the young people from the Bogside and Creggan areas of Derry has been launched at the Eden Place Arts Centre at Pilots Row.

‘Who Fears to Speak’ is a project by artist Clodagh O’Leary and hones in on the experience of young people from the republican stronghold areas of the Bogside and Creggan, exploring how ideas of republicanism shape their lives and identity, the organisers state.

The project looks closely at two specific traditions, Easter Rising commemorations and internment bonfires.

It also focuses on the landscape of the areas.
