How to Survive

Essays, visual narratives and interviews explore practices of care and present possibilities for living differently in a fragile age. Artists and culture bearers consider bonds of love, responsibility and reciprocity, encouraging consideration of our inherent interdependence with one another, with other creatures, and with the planet itself.

This anthology looks at how life, including plant, animal and human life, can thrive through acts of harmony. In How to Survive, women and non-binary voices present ideas of interdependence, placebased knowledge, attentiveness, liberatory imagination, mending, repair and activism, offering visions of hope and adaptation, as well as novel ways of understanding our responsibilities to the planet.
