EarthWorks

Rose Ferraby uses the lens of archaeology to reveal our impacts on the world. In EarthWorks she helps us see ourselves within previous patterns of change. Archaeology, we hear, is about imagination, with layers of time revealing people and their stories folded into the earth. At a time of considerable uncertainty about our future, could understanding our past interactions with the environment help us respond and adapt to whatever comes next?
