Earth Rising Eco Festival in IMMA

October 2022 & 2023

Curator & Artist Liaison

Earth Rising, IMMA’s new Eco Art Festival, presented over 70 contributors, artist commissions, talks, workshops and showcased a stunning Built to Disappear eco pavilion sponsored by Lioncor and designed by Reddy Architecture + Urbanism. Over the three days, Earth Rising planted the seeds of sustainability, enabling audiences of all ages to participate, discuss, experiment, and innovate. The festival, which focused on citizens assembly, brought together a wide variety of eco artists, practitioners and activists from across the island of Ireland.

Julia curated the festival for its first iteration with IMMA’s director Annie Fletcher, and colleague Siobhán Mooney. As part of her overarching role for the festival, she worked with over 70 artists.
