Compost as Superfood

Within the new work we would like to make a step towards organic materials such as compost, and research and discuss the implications of consuming humxn-made soil on personal health and community health. We hope to open up discussion of the safety surrounding consumption of organic materials, and the complexity of cultural understanding, spatial awareness, environmental awareness, and personal desires surrounding this.
