Through the lens of agricultural practices, art and reflections on translation, the workshop explores how to communicate with soil and asks what it means to listen to it in times of climate change and soil devastation. If humans learned how to translate soil’s expressions, what would they get to know? And how would that knowledge change their understanding of more-than-human agency and its political relations to human society? And how would that change our understanding of what it means to be human? To be democratic?
