Wordlist – GEOPOETICS

We need your help

We are calling on artists, researchers, and creators because the crisis we face is, at its heart, a crisis of imagination and description. To redefine our relationship with the planet, we need the researcher’s depth of inquiry, the artist’s ability to render the invisible, and the creator’s power to forge new forms of expression. Only through this collective, multidisciplinary effort can we dismantle the dominant narrative that treats the world as a mere commodity.

The Geopoetics is a collaborative art project seeking to conceptualize what it truly means to exist on this planet. Currently, our understanding is blocked by a polluted, anthropocentric language that reduces the Earth to a natural resource or economic asset. To move forward, we must first engage in an emancipatory and political act: we must liberate our language from this reductionist point of view.

Our point of departure is one of radical humility. We assume the Earth is too vast to be captured by the human mind. Our task is not to define the planet, but to let go of our illusions of control. We recognize the Earth as an incalculably rich, unified whole—a plethora of sentient and insensate beings, rivers and mountains, ghosts and microbes, and the integrated history of everything that has ever occurred above or below the surface.

The fatal threats we face today stem from the cowardice of treating the world as a lifeless globe. We feel the urgency for change in our bones and hear it in the wind. The Earth is calling on us to transform our perception. The Geopoetics is our collective attempt to answer that call. We invite you to join us in this refusal to reduce the world and help us find a new way to exist.
