WITH NATURE<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

What is Nature, and how do our experiences shape our appreciation of it? Myths reflect ancient understandings of Nature, while personal perceptions capture contemporary interpretations. This work explores the ways in which our understanding of Nature is influenced by personal experiences in different geographies. Shen\u2019s appreciation of Nature has been significantly shaped by Chinese myths and personal encounters with Nature in both China and Finland. With Nature is a textile collection that intertwines the past and present through storytelling. It blends Chinese myths with personal stories and observations, creating a dialogue between ancient beliefs and modern experiences of Nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
