We live in a time of social, economic and ecological unravelling. All around us are
signs that our whole way of living is already passing into history. We will face this
reality honestly and learn how to live with it.
We believe that the roots of these crises lie in the stories we have been telling
ourselves. We intend to challenge the stories which underpin our civilisation: the
myth of progress, the myth of human centrality, and the myth of our separation
from ‘nature’.
Humans are not the point and purpose of the planet. Our art will begin with the
attempt to step outside the human bubble. By careful attention, we will reengage
with the non-human world.
We will celebrate writing and art which is grounded in a sense of place and of
time. Our literature has been dominated for too long by those who inhabit the
cosmopolitan citadels.
The end of the world as we know it is not the end of the world full stop.
Together, we will find the hope beyond hope, the paths which lead to the
unknown world ahead of us.
