Exhibition
Wetland Times
Wetlands are ecologically dynamic and vulnerable landscapes where multiple temporalities, human and nonhuman, intersect and challenge one another. This virtual exhibition explores the dynamic temporalities of wetlands and their complex relationships—the temporal imaginaries, narratives, structures, flows, (a)synchronicities, and ruptures they contain—framed by a conceptual vocabulary that reveals the role of language in understanding wetland times and temporalities. Our examples draw on case studies from three wetlands: the Wadden Sea in Northern Europe; Morecambe Bay, in the northwest of the United Kingdom; and the Dja-et-Lobo region in southern Cameroon, focusing specifically on wetland areas near settlements of the Baka People.
