'Part of the Landscape: Interview with Miek Zwamborn'

This conversation with Dutch writer and artist Miek Zwamborn explores how walking, foraging, and prose interweave into a practice of deep, situated attention. Published in the Journal of Arts Writing by Students, the interview follows Zwamborn’s method of becoming part of a place—allowing the landscape to think through her rather than imposing fixed interpretations upon it. What emerges is a dialogue about slowness, careful observation, and the ethics of staying: remaining long enough with a terrain, its ecologies and histories, for reciprocal forms of understanding and responsibility to take root.
