Making Kin aspires to be ecofeminist in nature, in terms of acknowledging the intersectional mode of relations between gender and other socially constructed markers of identity like race, class, culture and nation, and how these intersect with pertinent environmental issues. With a focus on a politics of relations, Making Kin contemplates the Singapore woman writer’s place on earth from the perspective of the domestic and private to re-centre the woman in the discourse of politics, environment, ecology and nation. It is our hope that with this anthology, women writers in Singapore may chart a new cartography on the map of Singapore’s literary scene, writing urgently about gender, place, nature, climate change and other critical environmental issues that they find themselves entangled in and empathetic towards.
