The installation presents an immersive space in which to contemplate entanglements between the ongoing climate crisis, fertility, land, and belonging. In Brazilian artist Luiza Prado’s work, everyday practices turn into radical, decolonizing practices of care and affect. Here, cooking and contemplation challenge the networks of control that monitor and restrict the ability to create futures and sustain worlds that are multiple, plural, and heterogeneous. How to counteract a narrative of scarcity for which the solution presented by the current system is the total consumption of the earth itself, and with it those who stand at its margins; at its shorelines?
