Studio Polycultura is a design and communication studio focused on nature-based responses to ecosystem and social collapse. I design, execute, and communicate ecological and cultural regenerative initiatives that invite communities to take the health of the planet into their own hands. 

In agroecology, polyculture refers to the cultivation of multiple species in the same area, resulting in increased yields and healthier soils. Polyculture provides a model for how humans can relate to each other and their environment: it’s the diversity of a system which makes it resilient to disturbance.

“If diversity is a source of wonder, its opposite - the ubiquitous condensation to some blandly amorphous and singular generic modern culture that takes for granted an impoverished environment - is a source of dismay. There is, indeed, a fire burning over the earth, taking with it plants and animals, cultures, languages, ancient skills and visionary wisdom. Quelling this flame, and re-inventing the poetry of diversity is perhaps the most important challenge of our times.”
