CÀRNA

56° 66' 14'' N, 5° 88' 37'' W
From the Gaelic 'càrn', meaning a pile of stones used to mark a standpoint or a burial and astronomic site, symbolising the link between the earth and the sky, death and life; from the Latin 'caro', meaning flesh and the name of a mythological nymph who tempted men and hid away before they could find her. She then became the goddess of hinges and viscera, especially heart and gut.
​
​The island of Càrna lies in Loch Sunart, an arm of the sea close to the peninsula, on the west coast of Scotland. The uninhabited isle is a fertile sanctuary for biodiversity that carries a wide range of native species from ancient wild flower meadows to dark honeybees.

SISTERHOOD

A sisterhood of wild poet and mad artist, trying to excavate the gold mine of truth in a world that is increasingly afraid of it. 
On this little island, made of open flesh and honest soil, we aim to provide nothing but truth: the anti-news of our age.

Our concoction of creativity + politics becomes a further manifesto of what the human existence can become.
​'EARTH POEMS: SONGS TO THE EARTH' 
Environmental Poetry by Erin Rizzato Devlin

TO MOTHER EARTH

Through the art of poetry,
sound and stone come together:
the music of oral communication and the flesh of written word.

Here are songs for our earth,  
the mother body that
​keeps us alive.
