May nature gambol looks at the world from a longing for a truth that seems to be in a final attempt to bring the world to ever-vibrant life. An environment of connection and agency emerges, marked by the inevitable anger as we watch everything fall apart and our zero capacities become endless. The approach of always changing forms, not setting priorities, the love of chaos that is found everywhere in nature is intended to serve as self-reflection: How can we believe that we can continue to grow on this planet if we continue to use it like this treat us as if we were its rulers and not its participants? Could we build a technological society? That learns to interact with the natural, to bow to the natural instead of stepping over it.
