An essay by poet Gregory Leadbetter exploring the capacity of poetry to re-vivify the language we use to describe the living world.

‘Language needs poetry to revive the relation between knowing and unknowing – to keep open the inlet of mystery.’

The cover image is from ‘Fibre Figure’ (2004) by Julia Giles, an artist based in Cornwall who makes work about our relationship with living landscapes. ‘Fibre Figure’ is a digital drawing into a photograph of the artist’s shadow cast in vegetation, so that the landscape and the figure are indivisible.  See more on Giles’s website artworkjuliagiles.co.uk.
