Writer’s Talk
The Layers of Nature
Saturday, 30 November 2024, 15.00-16.00 Western Indonesia Time
Oesman Effendi Gallery, Taman Ismail Marzuki, Jakarta
In her debut novel Die grüne Grenze, Isabel Fargo Cole placed the forests of the Harz Mountain not only as the natural setting of her story but as multilayered dimension where the-political, the-historical, the mythical, the-cultural happened and even clashed into one another. It is precisely these layers which will be delved into some depths in this session: what do we really talk about when we talk about the natural world. Obviously, with her years of activism and writing, Amalya Reza Oktaviani would provide interesting insights into this. The conversations with the two writers with different backgrounds will enrich our perspective of nature.
