The Elephant in The Room

The Elephant in The Room visited Bray primary schools Scoil Chualann last week and Gaelscoil Uí Cheadaigh this week in collaboration with Mermaid Arts Centre! 🐘

The Elephant in the Room is an outrageous interruption! 

Standing over 3 metres high, the children arrive to school one morning to find this large-scale sculpture has shown up unannounced in
their school hall! 

The elephant stays put for a period of a week, aiming to provoke conversation and ignite critical thinking about things that are really obvious, yet we still find difficult to talk about - ie the elephants in the room!🐘🐘🐘

The Elephant in the Room was brought to these schools by Paul Curley & Mermaid Arts Centre, funded by an Arts Council Touring Award. Further details on Paul's work can be found on paulcurley.ie
