Self Assembly is one of the Programmes of Living Commons funded by the Irish Arts Council through the Participatory Art Practice Project Award 2020-2021. It is Co-Designed by Rob Ireson, Alex O’ Brien, Aideen Donovan and Eve Olney. It is a reconfigurable durable structure that can be used by different community groups and adapted to their needs, for example as a workshop space, an alternative school, and event space a social enterprice space, and assembly space, etc.
It has been designed under the leading communing criteria of inclusivity, equality, sharing and solidarity. The Living Commons intend to use the structure within community-led projects that offer alternative approaches to capitalistic cultures.
