Our Story
Repair Acts, Ireland emerges from over seven years of work Repair Acts, in the UK, Brazil and India.
Established in 2018 by the artist, researcher and Professor of City Futures, Teresa Dillon at the University of the West of England (School of Art and Design and Digital Cultures Research Centre).
This programme of work was brought to Ireland, in 2022, where in collaboration with Dr. Clavin and Westmeath County Council, Environmental and Heritage Officers and the Public Participation Network, an application was made to Creative Ireland’s inaugural Climate Action Fund, to set up the Irish branch.
Over 2023, we are transiting from this initial project-based support, to developing a more sustainable and long term programme of work in Ireland. This work will be rooted in Westmeath, with the home-base in Kilbeggan.
