Forest, Stone, Flesh: Spectral Traces and Bodily Archives


An eco-feminist journey across Dartmoor’s mythical sites ︎
Using the body as a material to access histories, we activate the site of Dartmoor National Park through the process of anarchiving. Anarchiving relates to the idea that sites can be understood as a living archive - as artists we engage with it as such and try to ‘re-alive’ the hidden narratives of sites and imagine alternative realities.
Collaboration between
Nella Piatek x Melissa Schwarz
Project created as part of the Mayes Creative Residency: Creative Inspiration From An Ancient Landscape funded by the Lottery Fund.
