What if the way we think about “invasive species” isn’t as clear-cut as we’ve been told?
Artist Sage Szkabarnicki-Stuart (@sageszk) uses striking, unexpected imagery to explore the blurry line between native and non-native species - and the hidden biases that shape how we see the natural world. Through her creative process, we’re invited to look closer, question what we think we know, and consider a more nuanced perspective on the ecosystems around us.
Produced in association with CBC Creator Network as part of the Seeds of Change initiative.
