Melissa Davies
Poet & Freelance Creative
’I defend your history
which is more of a geography
of shoals following storms.’
from The Arctic Diaries
Poet using words as a tool for place-making and accessible conversations around landscape. Working from a belief that we can reestablish our severed connection with the non-human through creative methods that blend the disciplines of history, ecology and art. At the core, simply a curious person.

“We are talking to ourselves. We are not talking to the river, we are not listening to the wind and the stars. We have broken the great conversation. By breaking the conversation, we have shattered the universe.”
