Highly concerned with the relentless erasure of queer behaviours operated by science and natural history, Queer Ecologies focuses on the relentless deconstruction of the conception of 'nature' as formulated in Western culture; it challenges the dualistic ways of thinking that separates nature from culture, and human from other earthlings. Ultimately, it critiques heteronormative constructs of nature and sexuality as not only socially divisive but also ecologically damaging. Heteronormative visions of nature have impoverished our world, trapped us in ugly stereotypes, and forced us into taxonomies of shame. The time has come to map new aesthetic territories and delve deeper into new representational modalities of engagement that might just break the dioramic spell.This issue of Antennae, titled ’Queering Nature’, is part of a diptych in which creative thinkers and makers from different disciplines embrace the task of sketching out and following new queer futurities that know no boundaries and separations.
