This Do…

  • Carlisle Memorial Church Carlisle Circus Belfast, Northern Ireland United Kingdom (map)

‘This Do’ is a community craft installation in the incredible Carlisle Memorial Church in Belfast. Created by Ali Fell (with the support of Anita Murphy) the piece features thousands of crocheted flowers from makers all across Northern Ireland. Aged between 10 and 86 the installation has been some five months and approximately 600,000 stitches in the making!

According to Ali:

‘While we’ve been making, I have been asking people to think about the special places that they make memories, and about what happens when those places don’t exist anymore, or aren’t available how they once were. Where do your memories live then?’

After the show, the Alzheimer’s Society are going to take flowers to dementia units in hospitals. During the show, people can make a flower, and a memory.
