Kinship as a verb – Ecophilia Reading Group 

The Ecophilia Reading Group invites you to dive into the meshwork of multi-species relationships, where kinship is not something given but a result of reciprocal giving and taking. Learning from indigenous concepts of kincentric ecologies we will explore the ethics and response-abilities that are embedded in modes of becoming-with and worlding together. 

In this group we meet to read together, share perspectives and exchange knowledges in the ongoing ecological, climate and social crises. Texts from a diversity of fields and genres combined with somatic and imaginative exercises open a critical zone for discussions on biocultural diversities, interdependencies and multi-species relationships in more-than-human ecologies. 

Session #1: becoming rhizomatic
In this session we look at the ancient associations, intimate relationships of plants and fungi and reflect on the social networks as expanded selves, In this session we look at the ancient associations, intimate relationships of plants and fungi and reflect on the social networks as expanded selves, as we read „Can We Grow the Concepts of Our Selves" (2021) by Merlin Sheldrake, text excerpts from  "A Thousand Plateaus: Capitalism and Schizophrenia" (1980) by Gilles Deleuze & Félix Guattari and "Notes from Lviv in times of war“ by Alona Liasheva (09.03.2022)

Open to participants from all disciplines. The readings and discussions will be held in English language.

Digital requirements: internet access, video conferencing capability (computer camera and microphone). The reading group will be hosted on zoom. We will send you the Zoom link shortly before the workshop begins.

This event is part of the program »It's About Life«, funded by the impulse program »Art despite Corona« of the Ministry of Science, Research and Art Baden-Württemberg.

The group is hosted by artist Sybille Neumeyer.
