For the past years I’ve worked on an eco feminist collage series of vulvas. In the beginning I didn’t know where I was going, but it is clear to me now and the work continues to deepen. Activism takes many forms in which art is one.

Under the capitalist patriarchy earth is being exploited to the degree that we are in a climate collapse. The system is build on exploitation and oppression of minorities and indigenous peoples. The colonial patriarchal ways of thinking is binary: culture/nature, white/racialised, man/woman, civilised/uncivilised etc. This gives the white man power and privileges and positions him above nature, above other genders, above POC people.

Eco feminism is the opposite, through the lens of intersectionality we can see how the systems of oppression are interconnected and deeply intertwined with the current genocide and ecocide.

We must connect with our humanity from which we are cut in this current system.

We are interconnected, we are nature and this where our power to change the systems of oppressions lies. To learn of indigenous wisdom, to be in solidarity, to connect with our humanity. We are equipped for the revolution. The revolution is already here.

Text on the last picture is from the book “Økofeminismer” by NOAH quoting Robin Wall Kimmerer.

I remember learning as a kid how similar hemoglobin is to chlorophyll.

And yet we will think we're different - and special - as humans compared to the rest of the natural world.

"Even the blood of plants is the blood of humans—the only significant difference is the magnesium atom in chlorophyll and the iron atom in hemoglobin. One captures light, the other oxygen." Vogt, Benjamin. A New Garden Ethic.
