A network of environmentally active witches
All Dirt Witch protests and actions take place on unceded Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Country.
We recognise and respect Indigenous cultural knowledge.
We inspire transformation and create change.
We are taking action.
We do projects, we plot, we protest, we perform.
.
We are artists, writers, curators, philosophers and thinkers.
All our creative and political actions are planned, developed and undertaken through the lens of environmental care.
As a counterpoint to the historical vilification of ‘the protestor’ as a witch, the dirt witches reclaim the name and the role of ‘the witch’, as a mode of subversion and resistance and embody the power of nature’s healers.
We resist the de-politicisation of the environment because climate issues are clearly the new reality.
We resist native tree logging.
And undertake to aid its end.
We resist environmental inaction, lethargy and fatigue through our community of belonging.
We commit to communicating climate urgency, creatively.
We commit to feeding back to government policy makers.
We are convinced that grass roots community action makes a difference.
We are convinced that creative practice is the perfect way to communicate challenging climate change issues.
We are convinced that creative practices can inspire and move audiences who may feel paralysed and unable to participate in the global movement in climate change.
We strive to engage wider audiences to commit to action, through the work that we do.
We strive to invite and connect new audiences who seek to participate in community action for climate change and share the uplifting experience.
