Rooted in the dual cultural resonance of the word dyke - meaning a dry stone wall in Scots and a reclaimed queer slur. This ongoing research explores performance-led interventions within Queer Ecology, focusing on resilience, resistance, and community in both natural and constructed landscapes.
Historically signifying wealth, ownership, and control over land - I aim to subvert and reimagine these structures as sites of regeneration and ecological resilience, reclaiming them as habitats and metaphors for resilience, community, and care.
