Planetary Intimacies explores landscape as a fragile, ever-changing system – through artistic research, painting, and poetic gestures. At the intersection of art and research, the project investigates shifting relationships with landscape in the Anthropocene. It engages with processes of transformation, friction, and resilience. How do landscapes remember? How do they dissolve, reform, and alter the ways we perceive them? Planetary Intimacies creates spaces for encountering landscapes beyond human-centered perspectives, embracing change, material agency, and planetary time. The project unfolds in glaciers, mountains, and meteorite impact zones – where planetary forces shape both the visible and the invisible, tracing fragile stories of intimacy and change.

Planetary Intimacies is less about authorship or visibility, and more about a way of approaching the world – an attempt to stand beside something, not above it. The pseudonym protects the freedom to be precise, to doubt, to be uncomfortable – to be hard and fragile at the same time. It resists recognition in favour of resonance. Planetary Intimacies is not a persona, but a position. A position that invites others to fill in the gaps, and to ask: With what view do I look at the world? And what does this perspective do to me, to society, and to the planet?
