Island Narratives of Kinship, Place, and the Weather
This Symposium will explore island narratives of kinship and place, understood as and resonate with multiple manifestations of heritage such as (but not confined to) ecological, socio-cultural, and gendered knowledges, and to which we seek artistic and other forms of (environmental) humanities responses. It will be held online (hosted by UHI) and in person, at Cnoc Soilleir in South Uist (hosted by Ceòlas and UHI North, West and Hebrides)

This two-day hybrid event is hosted by UHI, and organised by:
- Dr Iain Robertson (Associate Professor of Historical Geography, UHI Centre for History)
- Dr Laura Denning (independent artist & researcher, Associate Lecturer, University of Plymouth)
The Symposium has grown out of an extended arts research project that Laura has been developing as part of a British Academy Small Research Grant – initially working under the umbrella of Wet Ontologies, a two-year exploration of living with the weather as a lens through which to understand kinship.
