Letters to our multispecies kin - 12 writings to other animals

This video was produced after a workshop about imagining multispecies worlds, and its text was written by its participants. The film is a work of collective imagination that reflects with curiosity, kindness, and awe over a series of relations the participants had with other animals.

The workshop was held online, in the spring of 2022 by Maria Martelli, with students of the Ca’ Foscari University in Venice, at the invitation of Federica Timeto and Miriam De Rosa. Its content was based on our videos at just wondering... and the themes we approached in them while its title, “Imagining multispecies worlds” was inspired by the book of researcher & designer Michelle Westerlaken.

The workshop was supported by Università Ca’ Foscari Venezia.
The film was screened for the first time at Teatro Ca’ Foscari a Santa Marta, Venezia.
