Summary:
"This publication arose from the invitation to a diverse group of people dedicated to art, writing, curatorship, social sciences, philosophy and performance, to think about some words that we use to talk about life and what we call nature. Cecilia Vicuña, Tilsa Otta, Robert Tindall, Rita Ponce de León, Stefano Varese, Tabita Rezaire, William Rowe, and many other accomplices, created short entries about words like 'body', 'land', 'regeneration', 'friendship', 'water', collectively shaping a poetic and mobilizing vocabulary. The Vital Vocabulary seeks to promote an interdisciplinary dialogue among those of us who try to imagine, think and create alternatives to anthropocentrism, in times that call us urgently to inspire and strengthen each other." --Publisher's website (viewed on May 16, 2022)
