Art &#38;amp; Research&#38;nbsp;

Dr. Amanda White is an artist and researcher using art to engage with ecological systems, climate change, and human-nature relationships from a critical white settler lens. A key focus of her work is creative practice and critical plant studies, examining plants as living technologies that regulate climate, sustain ecosystems, and hold cultural significance. Her practivce explores plant lives and their role in shaping both human and more-than-human worlds.
Her book, Ecologies in Practice: Environmentally Engaged Arts in Canada, co-edited with Dr. Elysia French, was published in 2024 by Wilfrid Laurier University Press. &#38;nbsp;In 2025, they launched the Ecologies in Practice podcast to expand on the conversations in the book, bringing environmentally engaged artists and researchers into dialogue.
Amanda’s work also explores food systems, investigating how food production, distribution, and consumption are deeply connected to environmental and social issues. Through artistic methods, she highlights the links between agriculture, biodiversity, and climate justice, making these systems more visible and experiential. She currently works on two collaborative interdisciplinary food justice collaborations: the Creative Food Research Collaboratory, an international project connecting Canada and Mexico within global food networks, and Hungry Stories, a national initiative with leaders in health and food studies to explore food security, sustainability, and policy. &#38;nbsp;Committed to public engagement and collaboration, Amanda works with others to translate complex ecological research into accessible and immersive artworks. Her practice fosters deeper public understanding of environmental issues, emphasizing the role of art in shaping environmental discourse.

		<description>Visualizing Foodways: 
Art+Food Relational Approaches


	

Course Description:

This course focused on critical artistic approaches to food and agriculture from a relational, personal perspective. Over the fall semester, students developed their own research/research-creation projects as well as a collaborative garden installation.Drawing on theory from the environmental humanities, critical plant studies, feminist perspectives, science-fictional ecologies and biological arts, we examined personal and physical relationships with the world through the food that we eat. Students engaged with these ideas through reading, making (studio, kitchen, garden), site visits and interdisciplinary, research-creation approaches and examples (theory, art, fiction, etc.) with a particular focus on edible plants, and plants in agricultureSyllabus (link)

What is the responsibility, or the task of the arts as we face environmental crisis?
 Ecologies in Practice is an edited collection of dynamic and multi-formatted contributions exploring the ways in which cultural production informs perceptions, communications, and knowledge of environmental distress in a Canadian context, pointing to the significance of the Arts in the creation and sharing of crucial counter narratives and alternative possibilities. Ecologies in Practice identifies the arts as an important mode of inquiry for reimagining, and for public engagement and understanding of pressing environmental and social concerns, while acknowledging the ways in which it contributes important work to the growing interdisciplinary field of Environmental Humanities. 

Bringing together artistic perspectives from a range of lenses and voices,including; artists, writers, scholars, activists, curators, theorists, and makers, Ecologies in Practice offers important tools for artists, scholars, students, and research-creators invested in arts and the environment. Contributors present artistic methods as alternative sites of understanding that contribute significant and affective work to environmental scholarship, while thinking outside of the disciplinary borders and confines of the artworld. Ecologies in Practice aims to initiate vital conversations among practitioners, and together with readers, consider what environmentally engaged arts lend differently to these conversations.

The Creative Food Research Collaboratory

	The Creative Food Research Collaboratory germinates collaborations at the intersection of art and food studies, exploring how the arts can imagine—and therefore help to achieve—food security, food sovereignty, and food justice in Canada. &#38;nbsp;
Co-initiated in 2022 by Dr. Amanda White and Dr. Zoë Heyn-Jones with Research Associates Anahí González and Katie Lawson, we are currently based at the Center for Sustainable Curating at Western University (London, Canada). Foregrounding collaboration as methodology, we seeks to cultivate networks and structures that will allow collaborative artistic practices and knowledge mobilization strategies around food issues to take root and flourish. Our work includes academic research, public events, teaching and workshops, as well as fundraising for community food initiatives.
