ABOUT US.
Inner Fields is a collaborative, social practice project exploring the intersection of Dharma, radical ecology, and artistic practice. Through a creative methodology grounded in gift economics and communal intimacy, we host public programs and curated events aimed at breaking down hierarchical, commodity-based forms of interaction, and build genuine relationships steeped in ecological wisdom.
Created in 2015 as a series of public gatherings in artist Elaine Su-Hui’s apartment in Brooklyn, Inner Fields is now a trans-national, grassroots collective of six BIPOC artists, writers, scholars, community organizers, and educators. Our organizational model is built upon principles of transformative, participatory leadership and spiritual friendship (sangha). Our gatherings occur in various unique sites across the United States and Australia.
Reflexive, iterative, and adaptive by nature, Inner Fields offers another way of being, seeing, and relating to the world. She only exists when people are gathered together to create her. It is our gift to share her with you.
