We don’t live in a wilderness

The project is currently in development and explores how human–plant collaboration can be used to expose colonial and extractive logics embedded in our anthropocentric relationships with nature. The aim of the research is to find how I can resist these logics of knowledge production through collaboration. The project is examining boglands in Ireland as sites historically framed through colonial logics of waste and value and now repurposed for wind farms powering data centre.

One method of this project involves field sound recording of the bog using specialised subterranean microphones and experimenting with translating these in live sounds and visuals.

This pages serves to share some visual documentation as the project develops.

This project has so far been funded and supported by the Pan Pan International Mentorship 2025 in collaboration with Arts Council Ireland, Dublin Theatre Festival and Project Arts Centre.
