Trash to Art: Healing Our Seas

An art installation called “Turning the Tide” has transformed beach trash into a stunning, hopeful seascape—complete with a bright sun and a haunting fish skeleton made from microplastics. Artist Deirdre Brennan, inspired by kids’ drawings from Scoil Naomh Bhríde, led a community effort that brought volunteers, local businesses, and even fishing nets into the creative process. Now displayed in Union Hall, the piece is both beautiful and brutal, reminding viewers of the ocean’s hidden pollution—and the power of collective action to clean it up.
