What if we got it wrong?
The Arts Department of Wexford County Council in partnership with Wexford Arts Centre and the Centre Cultural Irlandais are delighted to present What If We Got It Wrong?, a group exhibition on climate change. This exhibition features the work of Irish, or Irish-based artists, engaged in issues of climate change and was curated by Nora Hickey M’Sichili, Director of the Centre Culturel Irlandais, Paris, in the lead up to the international COP21 Climate Conference in December 2015.
What if We Got it Wrong? taken from Lemn Sissay’s poem, What If?, explores the premise that progress as we know it may have diminished us, making us weaker; that somehow we might have taken a wrong turn and we may have made a serious mistake.
‘Let me get it right. What if we got it wrong?
What if we weakened ourselves getting strong?
What if our wanting more was making less?
And what if all of this wasn’t progress?’
