Fabulations is derived from Donna Haraway, a leading thinker in feminist studies, science & technology, and ecofeminism, who uses ‘speculative fabulation’ (SF) by referring to the practices of story tellers, makers of fables and impossible worlds, usually full of “creatures of the imagination.”

In Fabulations we immerse in the underwater world (imaginative, literal) making stories through connections in collaboration and between locations as well as between the past, present, and future work.
