“SEA” is a collage poem based on the author’s own writing and fragments of texts encountered in the course of his research on art, storytelling, and perceptions of long-term environmental change in the Orkney Islands. It seeks to evoke a time-space of virtual simultaneity and coexistence in which pasts and presents, history and mythology, the human and the other-than-human might interact and reciprocally transform one another.
