Abstract

ABSTRACT This article reflects on a series of wild experiments in literal field sites. It develops a practice-based methodology that aims to identify, perform and assert wild presences and unruly processes, playfully engaging with vibrant and dynamic ecologies. To explore these concerns ‘in the field’, a series of research trips were undertaken in the United Kingdom between 2017 and 2020, including repeated visits to Knepp Wildland Project in West Sussex and Bamff Estate in Perthshire. These locations were chosen due to their engagement with rewilding as an experimental mode of ecosystem management. Rewilding is explored here as a process-driven approach to conservation that offers a potential model for transdisciplinary artistic research. Adopting and adapting its methods through a combination of place writing, collaborative performance making and site-specific art, a creative practice is developed that prompts collaborative ways of working in response to the ecologies, conceptualisations and performances of these field sites. Aiming to bring something back from the field into the academy, the article argues for a (re)wilding of disciplinary knowledge exchange. It concludes with a call for wild epistemology, proposing that research in specific field sites can be informed by an artistic practice that is entangled, unsettling and continually practiced.

野外工作:为性能研究而进行的野外实验
本文是对一系列野外文学实验的反思。它开发了一种基于实践的方法,旨在识别,执行和维护野生存在和不受约束的过程,与充满活力和动态的生态嬉戏。为了在“实地”探索这些问题,我们在2017年至2020年期间在英国进行了一系列研究之旅,包括反复访问西苏塞克斯郡的Knepp Wildland项目和珀斯郡的班夫庄园。之所以选择这些地点,是因为它们作为生态系统管理的实验模式参与了野生化。在这里,将野生化作为一种过程驱动的保护方法进行探索,为跨学科艺术研究提供了一个潜在的模型。采用并调整其方法,结合地方写作,协作表演制作和特定地点的艺术,开发了一种创造性的实践,促进协作的工作方式,以响应这些现场的生态,概念化和表演。为了将一些东西从野外带回学术界,文章主张(重新)开展学科知识交流。它以呼吁野生认识论作为结论,提出在特定领域的研究可以通过一种纠缠的、令人不安的、不断实践的艺术实践来获得信息。
