ARTWORK BY MAYAH PICO

Wait, Mother Nature Has a Few Words for You Too MAYAH PICO everything becomes intentional when you live amongst the trees harmony becomes a necessity the clouds and roots deliver the news the body adorned in paint made from fruit death is never too far away so the beauty of life is held in its rightful light sacrificing self to the elements in hopes that the next harvest will come on time they ask us to take a step into nature to consider that... only by mother earth’s guidance may our world be made right only through deep connection may we reach true insights yet knowledge is not meant to be taken How do you expect that knowledge to awaken on your day-to-day basis without the proper wisdom accompanying it? there is no cheat code for being tuned in it will take time and effort emerging from within and a devotion to the flora and fauna –our sacred earthly kin Mayah Pico is an MSc Science Communication student.
