idea:

Thematic Concern:


The current condition of the Anthropocene which centres and pedestals human life, is persisting to a degree where humans have forgotten their inherit place within the bio-sphere.

I think many people are naively (and sometimes ignorantly) unaware of the bounty and beauty of our dear Earth. Also unaware that as humans, we are an integral piece of nature. This often stems systemically from a hierarchal suppression of the power of individuals, the power of community, the power of being connected to nature. Many cultures and religions uphold these ethics of reverence and actively foster connection to the natural world, however many of such have been lost or silenced over hundreds and thousands of years.
