Voices of the Natural World

with guest contributor Mary Acton Adams

We are always delighted to learn of initiatives by graduates of the Living Waters inquiry which take the learnings into the wider world. Mary’s project exploring how the natural world communicates took place at Meanwhile Gardens in west London during the year 2022. The participants came from a wide range of people, all with an interest in the natural world and rediscovering their relationship with it. The project was part of Mary’s MA at Middlesex University. It was informed by participation in the first Living Waters inquiry; by our mutual friend, writer and bioregionalist Etain Addey; by the panpsychic philosophy of Freya Mathews; and the Freefall Writing practice of Barbara Turner-Vessalago
