Personal profile

PhD Project

Julyan Levy is currently researching plant agency and its role in prefiguring community economies.

Using ethnography to observe specific plants and their ability to disrupt and subvert capitalist economic relationships.

Julyan aims to bring focus to the decolonisation of the human-plant relationship - drawing on Western scientific epistemology through a more-than-human, multi species lens whilst explicitly acknowledging how this academic 'turn' bares a striking resemblance to specific Indigenous sciences that understand peoples kin based relationships with plants.
