MERMAID CENTRE, BRAY, 'UNBUILDING' EXHIBITION OPENING

A massive collaboration of artists, architects and artists culminated in a rotating exhibition of 11 artists at the Mermaid Centre in Bray. 
Noel Cleary, Eleanor Phillips and Pat Burnes from Signal Arts Centre were on hand to see the work unveiled.














Familiar faces in the crowd, that I recognised were former staff artist and Maura Ryan, along with Zan O' Loughlin and Dermot McCabe and his lovely wife from The Bray Arts.
Many local artists were there including Siobhan Sherlock, Damien Flood ( his art along with Alan Butler opened this exhibition), Kate Warner, Ed Phillips, also Musician Rocco was there to.  Rocco will accompany the Whimsical Art Tour from the Mermaid to Signal Arts Centre on Culture Night Sept 24.
The co-curators are the Mermaid's Eilís Lavelle, Rosie Lynch and Clíodhna Shaffrey. Congratulations on a  very thought provoking exhibition.
Details of the project are on the website http://www.unbuilding.com/
This project has been initiated by Wicklow County Arts Office and Arts Officer Jenny Sherwin with additional support from ArtLinks and Mermaid Arts Centre.
