My name is Gabriel Marks, and I started this project to fulfill the requirement that I complete a research project for my graduate degree in environmental studies. It felt important to me to use this time to continue to connect more intentionally with other queer nature connection people and explore our ecological futures through visual narratives. I hope this project will grow and evolve based on the collaborations that emerge from this starting point. You can read more about me through my positionally statement for this research.
