This three-day conference—held both online and at Goethe-Institut / Max Mueller Bhavan Mumbai—brought together a diversity of voices from across disciplines as poetry, architecture, philosophy, anthropology, linguistics, activism, and art-making. Convened by Ravi Agarwal and Ranjit Hoskote in February 2022, the event generated a constellation of perspectives and frameworks representative of the most current, contemporary thought in domains such as ecopoetics, habitat conservation, and social justice. State of Nature: Dialogues invited its audience, not only into a consideration of the ecological and political urgencies at large in our global present, but also into an awareness of discursive, artistic, research and organisational strategies that are being crafted to address them.
