TBG+S artist Celina Muldoon was artist-in-residence at St. Vincent's Girls' National School for eight weeks during October and November 2019. The residency included introductions to contemporary art and Celina’s practice, with a visit to the gallery and artists’ studios at Temple Bar Gallery + Studios. Celina worked with fifth class pupils on a collaborative project themed around biodiversity, inspired by a visit to Bull Island with biodiversity expert Hannah Hamilton. Over six workshops the pupils created wearable sculptures which resulted in an ambitious live performance on the streets around their school.
