Abstract

Cover image and featured art from his Nàdar/ Prakriti solo exhibition 2018. Artist’s Note Dialogical Possibilities: Nature and Wildness in Scotland and India The idea of nature is a complex one. It is not a fixed entity. Nature is expe - rienced in many ways, often simultaneously as a cultural, legal, political, or scientic e fi xploration. Relationships with nature are also differently formed when looked through the lens of gender, race, and caste. On the other hand, nature has been assumed to be free and available on demand, taken for granted as a resource. The current planetary crisis marked by the Anthro- pocene and climate change has brought home the fact that there are limits to which nature can be exploited without tipping the planetary balance. positions 27:3 doi 10.1215/10679847-7539251 Copyright 2019 by Duke University Press Downloaded from https://read.dukeupress.edu/positions/article-pdf/27/3/429/619216/0270429.pdf by DEEPDYVE INC user on 16 June 2020 positions 27:3 August 2019 430 To revalue nature will require a reassertion of its complexity.
