Cryptogamic Dramaturgy – Understorey Agencies of Landscape Dramaturgy is a research project that extends my long-term work on landscape dramaturgy by asking what performance, film, and collective action can learn from mosses, lichens, fungi, and other cryptogams. Developed through fieldwork in West Cork, Ireland, in spring 2025, the project grew out of collaboration and exchange within Marta Popivoda, close observation of understorey ecologies, and conversations with plant scientist Marcel Jansen and ecologist Chris MacMahon.
