WE ARE THE SEA BETWEEN ISLANDS is a multimedia project that explores the entanglement of humans and the non-human world. Through interactive visuals and sound, text, and images, explore how our bodies are in constant communication with the environment and other bodies (both human and non-human) through microbes and other organisms we are often blind to.
How do we entangle?
How does my body change the world around me, now and in generations?
