Inspired by how rivers curve and curve, connecting whole ecosystems, meanding: art, ecology, and metaphysics displays the cultural, historical, spiritual and ecological trajectories of the river paths, reflecting the vitality of water, from its source to the sea. A diverse group of artists and writers set out to trace river systems from the mountains and forests of southern Spain to the heart of America and the subsoil of the Mediterranean, proposing new routes for collaborative research and the production of knowledge. In newly in charge texts and a selection of influential essays, including a transhistoric dialogue between the mystical of the 12th Ibn 'Arabī and the recognized essayist Sylvia Wynter, as well as letters, aromas, recipes, critical-contemplative writing and guided meditations. , Meanding combines a rich visual documentation with knowledge of the fields of art, visual culture, environmental humanities, ecoteosophy, mysticism, critical theory and decolonial studies. This volume offers a set of practical and poetic tools for dynamic reconciliation between action and imagination to address the pressing social and environmental challenges of our time.
