As part of the community engagement aspect of the project Lament and together with the FIRE-RES initiative, led by the CEABN InBIO, of the Instituto Superior de Agronomia CoLAB ForestWISE, bio-artist Margherita Pevere and activist Celine Charveriat have spent the last week in Santa Comba Dão (PT), working with local people from an area which has been affected by large scale wild-fires.
This work follows the project’s aim to engage with ecological grief and post-fire restoration, following the effect of wildfires on nonhuman and human ecosystems, and exploring how to live within these changing ecosystems in changing times.
