maximizing life

A new tapestry is starting. Engaging with existing materials. Sorting them. Collecting newly available ones from the garden. Feeling. Shaping. Smelling. Disposing old ones as mulch, as seeds for new growth and as food for birds and ants. Letting her play. All part of a new cycle of abundance to be weaved. To create new territories where all terrestrials can exist and play a role. Photos by Monica Pinheiro CC BY-NC-SA (CC) May 2026.

"A certain conception of «nature» has allowed the Moderns to occupy the Earth in such a way that it forbids others to occupy their own territories differently. (...) The current situation (...) is not simply a matter of economics but rather of civilization itself. (...) The new conflicts do not replace the old; they sharpen them, deploy them differently, and above all they finally make them identifiable." Bruno Latour (2020).
