Abstract
Writing poetry over finger-paintings that are created with natural dyes is an embodied reflexive practice that can help students connect with ideas about eco-justice as they develop a deeper relationship with the Earth. As Kimmerer (2013) explains, “The exchange between plants and people has shaped the evolutionary history of both” (p. 124). Writing practices also shape who we are becoming. Through the creation of visual poetry, I investigate the importance of engaging with language and landscapes to develop relationships with one another.
