Dr Tarsh Bates is an artist/researcher/educator interested in the transfer of knowledge and experience between bodies, environment and culture. She says that she is "particularly interested in the work that olfaction does within Homo holobiont (and other ecosystems…)".
Susan Hauri-Downing is an artist and eco-social worker. She works at the intersection of social work and artistic methodologies and practices focussing on urban ecological diversity, biocultural diversity, solastalgia, grief and loss and the intricacy of interspecies relationship.
Both are Australian born; Tarsh is currently working in Sweden and Susan in Western Australia.
