Guests:
Rachel Fallon (Artist)

The transition towards a green economy negatively impacts the most vulnerable part of the population and it must be fair, inclusive and involving every part of the society. The Art of Just Transition is a space where voices of the community converge to explore what a ‘just transition’ truly means. This event brought together an artist, a scientist and an independent research & policy analyst to examine the ecological, social, and political dimensions of the green transition, using creative expression to illuminate urgent environmental and justice issues.

Through interdisciplinary discussion, The Art of Just Transition addresses the interconnected challenges of inequality, climate justice, and urban ecologies, enabling new perspectives. By connecting diverse disciplines, this event invites dialogues, and provokes critical thought, inspiring radical imagination and meaningful change to shape the life of the society.

Entangled Life, supported by Community Foundation Ireland and curated by Cristina Nicotra, is a programme exploring the deep connections between climate, society, and the ecosystems where art and community intertwine. This initiative unravels heterogeneous climate and social topics, by understanding ecology as a complex web of relationships—between humans, the more-than-human world, and political and natural environments.

Entangled Life aims to provide space to facilitate a network of relationships, collaboration and engagement within the community. Over the course of 8 months the project will bring together community participants, artists and experts for a series of monthly panel talks, workshops and artistic interventions at Pallas Projects, culminating in an exhibition in December 2025.

Events take place Wednesdays, 6–8pm. Participants are welcome to attend some or all events
