Intertwined

A Discovery of Connections Between Nature and Humans as a Way of Ecological Recovery (2025)

Intertwined explores relationships between humans and the natural world through ecology, memory, cultural narratives and photographic practice. The research investigates ideas of interconnectedness, ecological belonging and more-than-human relationships, questioning dominant understandings that position humans as separate from nature.

Drawing from environmental philosophy, Indigenous knowledge systems and contemporary ecological discourse, the project reflects on how alternative ways of thinking about kinship, agency and reciprocity might inform both ecological recovery and artistic practice. The research continues to shape my work around landscape, heritage, forests, material processes and cultural memory.
