DROWNED GALWAY
Think you can walk on water?
Drowned Galway is a multi-media series of works comprising large-format photomontages, film, textile designs, sculpture, music & performance, visualising life in a near-future inundated city. Find yourself immersed in a near future Galway, where the abnormal has become normal, and floods and sea level rising have transformed the city. How close does the future have to come before we care enough to act?
“The eyes of all future generations are upon you. If you choose to fail us, I say we will never forgive you.”
Greta Thunberg, UN address, 2019
