After over a year of collaboration, we proudly present To Spring From Salted Earth edited by Wanini Kimemiah, as part of the Stedelijk x C& Editorial Fellowship (2023/2024). This publication brings together poetry, essays, visual art, storytelling and sound to explore a profound question: How does it feel to be outside in the natural world?
Kimemiah and eight contributors delve into the deep connections between people, land, and nature, focusing on the Kenyan context and the complex legacies of colonial histories. They highlight the importance of reclaiming our relationships with the living world, starting from personal connections and sacred spaces.
This publication reflects, reconnects, and imagines new ways of belonging to the natural world—a powerful call to honor the intimacy and history that shape our shared existence.
