The work is rooted in ecofeminism, inspired by the intuitive bond between women and nature in Han Kang’s The Vegetarian. It incorporates the symbolic gesture of the “human chain” — embracing, hand-holding, and encircling — drawn from historical protests led by women in movements such as India’s Chipko and the UK’s Greenham Common. Created in collaboration with women/nature collectives The Bridge and Trapped in Zone One, the project integrates shared painting practices into its narrative and witnesses the transformation of individual action into collective ecological solidarity.
