Jemma Foster

Deep Listening and Primal Sensing of More-Than-Human Intelligence

November 23, 2024

"Plants are our kin and ancestors," says Jemma Foster, an artist, writer, and researcher-advocate of plants, "and these masters of adaptation and survival can be our greatest teachers, if only we learn to listen." An advocate and deep listener of plants and other nonhuman life for the collective wisdom they hold, Jemma's teachers have spanned the diverse roles she herself has explored: researcher, publisher, artist, and a practitioner of plant and vibrational medicine. Jemma's work explores fragile ecologies and agricultural processes through more-than-human soundscapes, emerging technologies, as well as the role of ritual. She is the author of a book on sacred geometry and an illustrated card deck where alchemy meets astrology, offering remedies to heal the emotional and physical body. She has authored a forthcoming book, fall 2024, Wild Alchemy Lab: An Astro-Botanical Guide to the Magic, Myth and Medicine of Plants.
