🌱 How present are plants in your life? Do you notice them, or consider them part of the background? This video explores the relationships we have with the photosynthetic ones - those beings thanks to whom we can breathe, and thus be alive. By learning to listen to the vegetal world, the Planthroposcene pushes us to explore other ways of being human and thus disrupt colonial and anthropocentric understandings of what plants are.

🙏 This video has been produced with the help of the Sociological Review Foundation as an output of Economy in the Planthroposcene: Plants, Solidarity and Worldmaking part of the 2022 Sociological Review Seminar Series.
🪴 Giulia Carabelli is a lecturer in Social Theory in the School of Politics and International Relations at Queen Mary, University of London (UK). Her work explores the politics of everyday life, and how we make sense of inconsistencies, creative attempts at navigating crises, and the possibility of building more just and inclusive futures. Her current research project, “Care for Plants”, started during the Covid-19 lockdowns, reflects on the prominent roles acquired by houseplants during the pandemic to evaluate how living in forced isolation with houseplants impacted people's perception of who they are, what they do, and their roles in social life.
🌿 Gavin Maclean is a lecturer in sociology at Edinburgh Napier University. His work explores the interconnections between culture, work and care. His recent research has focused on the underrepresented role plants play in the future of work and economy and the aesthetic questions around restoration from ecological crisis.
