In what ways does nature inspire or inform your work?
With so much of my work rooted in online discourse, nature is the one tangible aspect that helps ground me. Often the internet works in hyperboles and makes little things feel like life or death. I find myself leaning on the quiet, reliability of nature.
What does it mean to you to be part of a thriving ecosystem?
A thriving ecosystem is deep collaboration for me; between people, genres of study and ways of life. It is also humour and lightness – I wish we could bring back more of that.
