Anthropoiesis is an audiovisual work incorporating visual poetry, narration and soundscape to convey the Anthropocene's rupturing of deep time. Text was adapted from David Farrier's Anthropocene Poetrics (2019) to experiment with new ways in which ecocriticism can not only discuss art and poetry but be reimagined as both. It was exhibited in Palazzo Bembo as part of the European Cultural Centre's "Time, Space, Existence" exhibition of the Venice Biennial, part of the wider Venice Biennale, 2023. The work was featured in concert with installations by Joshua Zeunert and Ainsley Murray, providing the sonic texture of the three works' exhibition cluster.
