Description was written before the event

What happens when we give the birch tree, the dove, and the stream each their own verb? This event explores how language can sharpen our eye for nature's vitality.

Building on Shekufe's dictionary 'The Verbs of Life' (2024), the programme takes participants through the park and along the stream - with trees, herbs, insects, and birds as the focal points for conversation.
