The process “EARTH BODIES – environmental grief” delves into the effects on the body of the sense of grief created by today’s constant onslaught of negative environmental change and human-made eco-disasters in order to document these effects.
The research aims to explore the environmental grief we feel when our ecosystems are altered or threatened due to global warming or other environmental crises, specifically addressing the impact of climate change and extreme weather conditions on physical, mental, and emotional well-being.
“EARTH BODIES – environmental grief”, with an ecofeminist approach, reimagines (environ-)mental care through a decolonial perspective on climate anxiety by fostering biodiverse relationships and a regenerative approach. How are our bodies and all our relationships affected by environmental grief?
The proposal opens channels of somatic, sensorial, and embodied encounter, creating an awareness space about the urgency of rewilding our wounded home. Human and more-than-human ancestral knowledge is invoked in a ceremonial space where participants are free to take off their shoes and get in touch with soil, experiencing an intimate, immersive space.
