Artist Abigail McDougall moves from Bristol to the island of Thasos in Greece, and undergoes the challenges of shifting to an ecological way of life.
The writers from whom Dark Mountain has taken inspiration are grounded in a sense of place and time. In the deep time of geology and myth, in the rooted relation to place of a tree or the navigational feel for place of a migrant bird.
