Below ground: soil life in a changing climate, Art-science exhibition at the Irish Agricultural Museum, Johnstown Castle takes place from September 30 – November 6, 2022.

What goes on below our feet? A bustling community of plant roots, tiny animals, and microbes underpin our way of life – bringing us food, cleaning water, and regulating our climate. How are vibrant soil communities affected by climate change? How will it affect us? The life and wonder of soil is always with us, but rarely seen. Join us on a journey of discovery below ground! 

Featuring the artwork of: Cathy Reddy, Eileen Hutton, Frank Ashwood, Giulia Canevari, Hanneke van Ryswyk, Wim van Egmond, and more!
