I was thrilled to be in conversation with environmental lawyer Sinead Mercier (Author of Men Who Eat Ringforts), Gareth Kennedy and Seoidin O’Sullivan for TURNING GROUND, organized by the National College of Art and Design and the Digital Hub in Dublin.The conversation was rich and wide ranging, continuing to return to themes of property, the history of enclosures, conceptions of nature, and who gets to count as kin. I am indebted to Gareth and Seoidin, as well as the curator Anne Kelly for their vision and organizing of this event.
The National College of Art and Design, Dublin (NCAD) and The Digital Hub present a programme of public talks titled, TURNING GROUND Talks Series 2022. This is the second year in which the two organisations have partnered in this way: the 2022 series creates a platform to bring together local and international artists, community, activists, academics and practitioners to discuss art ecology projects, research and practice. Together, they will imagine just socio-ecological futures with a focus on the Dublin 8 neighbourhood. NCAD | The Digital Hub Turning Ground Talks Series 2022 is convened by artists, Gareth Kennedy, NCAD Fine Art lecturer in Sculpture and Expanded Practice & course leader of NCAD FIELD and Seoidín O’Sullivan, The Digital Hub Artist-In-Residence, NCAD Visual Culture guest lecturer in Art, Ecology & Critical Spatial Practice and NCAD First Year Studio Practice tutor.
