9ft in Common uncovers the complexities and shares the possibilities of an infrastructure of urban alleyways, Belfast’s wild and liminal spaces.
The work, in close partnerships with local communities, investigates ownership, access, disruption and place. The name 9ft in Common is inspired by a lease first signed in December 1902, confirming a right of way over and along a 9ft passage in Belfast. It is led and developed by Amberlea Neely of Starling Start and Aisling Rusk of Studio idir.
