If trees are poems that the earth writes upon the sky, and we fell them down and turn them into paper so we may record our emptiness, as the 1920’s libanese poem (Jubran) states… then mussels and kelps are the lyrics of the oceans. And these we may well harvest, repeatedly and carefully, and turn into art, cuisine, floor tiling and food for thought – on how we can learn to get along better at the edge of the sea, and the edge of world as we know it.
