Ecosex Wedding Happenings
In order to create a more mutual and sustainable relationship with nature, we orchestrated 21 large-scale ecosexual wedding performances over the course of 9 years in 9 countries. We, along with our guests/audiences, made wedding vows to various nature entities. Initially at the invitation of Linda M. Montano, our project used the structure of her 14 Years of Living Art, where we incorporated a new theme and color each year. We asked for no material gifts but invited people to collaborate with us on the creation of the weddings. Below is the photo documentation from several of the ecosexual wedding happenings.
