Mud, Everywhere

Those landscapes that floods leave behind: a mixture of water and earth, cultivated soils, chemical residues, oils, animal carcasses, the debris of houses and trees.

Compostist Paintings

“We relate, know, think, world, and tell stories through and with other stories, worlds, knowledges, thinkings, yearnings.” Donna J. Haraway

How To Become A Tree (Daphne)

Becoming Forest Yourself (Daphne)

Where Ovid's story of Daphne ends, many new stories, interpretations and the Anthropocene begin. The story of Daphne remains present as a seed, ready to germinate.

How to speak about the Earth

“We can no longer say ‘this, too, will pass.’ We're going to have to get used to it. It's definitive.” Bruno Latour

Entangled

We always have to start again from scratch: Re-think, re-dream, reorganise, re-listen, re-collaborate.

Shimmer

“Bir’yun is the shimmer, the brilliance, and, the artists say, it is a kind of motion. Brilliance actually grabs you. Brilliance allows you, or brings you, into the experience of being part of a vibrant and vibrating world.” Deborah Bird Rose

The Garden

Nymphology

Nymphology is not an established science in the classical sense, but rather an interdisciplinary field of research that deals with nymphs, their representations and their symbolic meaning in different cultures and epochs.

Fragmentary Landscapes

Hills, embankments, thickets: fragmentary landscapes, sections, excerpts, nothing big. These landscapes elude the overview, the grand design.
