“Hmm, that’s a nice question. I suppose, when I think about it, seaweed has deepened my understanding of what “connecting” and “nature” really mean. So, there’s that. Also, algae is so ecologically critical and yet so invisible to many of us. Developing kinship with seaweed has, for me, directly translated to acknowledging all the other things that are critical yet often unseen, like fungi, soil microbiology, air, webs of connectivity or like our personal intentions and dreams. Seaweed has helped me attempt to live in a way that respects the unseen.”
