Event Description

Artist’s Fake Museum Explores Possible Future for the Planet

Afterwards is an installation of original work by Tracy McCoey, a recent Masters Degree graduate from the School of Art at Ulster University.

The exhibition features a mini Victorian museum housing faux artefacts from an ambiguous time after a catastrophic climate event. The artefacts refer to the ecological imbalance caused by human activity.

Growing up in Long Island, USA, the artist has memories of abundant numbers of crabs and birds on childhood beaches. These are now in decline, due to human activity.

The “museum” explores a possible restructuring of society that incorporates Native American principles for a more sustainable future.

Gallery closed on Sunday and Monday.
