Inspired by the writings of Rachel Carson, Arne Næss, and others, this ongoing body of work examines the relationship between myself and the ecosystems and environments I am a part of as the impacts of climate change and other ecological issues become more drastic and more urgent. The Ecological Self  allows me to see myself as a part of the ecosystem I live in, instead of an outside observer or controller of it. And seeing myself in this way makes protecting the environment an act of self-love and self-defense.
