ABOUT

We are artists concerned with the ecological and social crises of our era. Our work manifests as interdisciplinary projects, residencies, exhibitions, events and research spread nomadically across regions. Our approaches include artistic, ecological and cultural practices that align with fostering positive change for people and the planet. 

We value diverse perspectives and foreground decolonial thinking and indigenous perspectives within our collaborative work. We see art as a tool for change, as a tool to both connect and reflect on our relationship with the natural world, to foster critical thinking and build on essential dialogues as part of reshaping our role at this critical moment in time.

Fostering connections within territories we cultivate inclusive spaces where artists, creatives and other practitioners can connect with earth, engage with local culture, experiment and develop projects that can inspire us to reimagine new ways of thinking, being, and co-existing on this planet.
