The Land Gardeners use exhibitions and film to help people see soil not as dirt beneath our feet, but as a living system connected to everything around it. Their exhibition SOIL (London, 2025) showed a film tracing connections between Britain’s temperate rainforests and underground fungal networks. When the exhibition travels to Hastings (2026/27), filmmaker Joya Berrow will work with local ecologists to follow those connections out to sea – through coastal soils, kelp and the seabed. Each place the exhibition travels to adds a new chapter to the film, shaped by the ecosystems and people there. Emergence Trust supports the Hastings chapter, including research, filming and public gatherings.
