As part of the scattered-site exhibition-event In Between Zones – A London Art Guerrilla Tour, ‘Zones of Estrangement’ unfolds within Highgate Wood, an ancient woodland in North London. We approach this woodland not merely as a site but as an experimental ground—an interlocutor, a living stage upon which displacement, dislocation, and contemporary forms of spirituality are enacted. The participating artists activate the woodland as a negotiated yet interstitial space, where the “parochial domain of ‘others’” becomes sensorially tangible, relationally palpable and socially generative. The negotiation takes place between the artists and the more-than-human environment, while fissure signifies the precarious adventure of temporary spatial borrowing. The exhibited works frame displacement not as loss but as a condition for emergence; spirituality not as transcendence but as immanent encounter; and ecopoiesis not as restoration but as co-creation with the living forest.
