Entangled Life
Pallas Projects Thursday, 27th November 6–8pm
Runs untill 12/12/2025
Entangled Life – Exhibition at Pallas Projects, curated by Cristina Nicotra, marks the culmination of a year of gathering in a space for thought, conversation, and practice on environmental interdependencies. It weaves together traces of voices, ideas, and materials collected from across the entire programme.
Featuring artists Rosie O'Reilly, Mark Clare, and a large-scale collaborative work by The Liberties Weavers, the exhibition unfolds as an interactive space that brings into focus the interconnectedness of human and more-than-human worlds. Guided by Joanna Macy’s principles of Active Hope -knowledge, compassion, and action- the project embraces this complexity in a shared space of responsibility and care.
The gallery is conceived as a space for dialogue, memory, and open-ended possibilities, where the audience is agent and author. A living archive of the programme is presented as a constellation of documents and audio recordings, suspended and accessible both onsite and online, inviting re-listening, re-reading, and reflection. The artworks in the show are intertwined with artists' invitations to explore and reengage with the history and storytelling of the land and water, holding space for reflection and softness.
I will be presenting eidolons (2022) and Shockwave (2017) as part of the Earth Rising Festival this coming weekend.
Earth Rising is a vibrant new Eco Art Festival celebrating people, place and planet taking place across the IMMA Campus this October. Presenting over 70 contributors, artist commissions, talks and workshops, Seed STUDIO, and showcasing a stunning built to disappear eco pavilion, alongside an eclectic live music line-up and food stalls, this promises to be an engaging and enjoyable free day out for everyone.

Speaking of Which Series II – The Ecological Edition
The LAB Gallery and The Dock are delighted to share with you Speaking of Which Series II - The Ecological Edition, the second edition in a series of short filmed interviews with contemporary artists based in Ireland, designed to help connect young people with visual arts and culture.
This series presents ten videos highlighting the work of 12 very different and unique artists, who have an ecological aspect to their practice and artists who are making work in reaction to climate change. This series was made in response to growing concerns for the global climate crisis.
This resource is intended to act as a starting point for conversations with young people about their own creativity, ideas, inspirations and as a tool for educators to devise workshops and other practical activities for their classes.
The artists are Mark Clare, Cathy Fitzgerald, Catherine McDonald, Rosie O’Reilly, Basam Al Sabah and Jennider Mehigan, Claire Donohoe, Laura Fitzgerald, The Project Twins - James and Michael Fitzgerald, Maria McKinney and Vanya Lambrecht Ward.
