What we make of this almost impossible theme and what it makes of us are enacted through art, poetry, reverie, analysis and storytelling. We write in ways that are personal, lateral and yet collective, experimenting with how the tensions and connec- tions between different art forms, methodologies and theories might contribute to an emergent ethic of ‘palliative care for the planet'. collaborative enquiry arts-based research climate change Indigenous/non- indigenous ways of knowing deep listening 281
