Meet the Fellows: Eva Meijer (2025)
🌍 MEET EVA MEIJER 🌍 We’re excited to share our interview with Eva Meijer, Summer Planetary Fellow, philosopher and writer whose work spans language, silence, madness, nonhuman animals, and politics 🌿. During the interview, Eva shared insights into their project: Multispecies Assemblies. A powerful concept inviting us to recognize seas, mountains, animals, and plants not as backdrops to human activity, but as political actors in their own right 🌊⛰️🐕. Eva explores these assemblies as forms of direct democracy, where some beings speak for themselves and others are represented. Eva also spoke about their guests — political philosopher Angie Pepper and writer and curator Jason White — who will join them at the concluding conference of the panel From Relations to Politics, taking place 18–20 November at Rauischholzhausen Castle. 👉 Want to learn more?
