Exploring Child-Soil Relations in the Anthropocene

Place:

Whadjuk Boodjar, Boorloo/Perth, Australia

Website:

This project explores children’s embodied, sensory, and ethical relations with soil through creative, place-based pedagogies. Drawing on posthumanist and ecological philosophies, it investigates how children engage with soil as vibrant matter, fostering ecological awareness and multispecies kinship. The project uses art, storytelling, and walking methodologies to cultivate response-ability and regenerative ways of living.
