Engrained

By  Andrew Carnie 2025

A work made for the show Every Step of the Way at the Arc Winchester. I came to walk this section of the SDW with a prior interest in medicine, the biology of the gut, the microbiome, and recent research on the value of gardening and touching the soil and a wider sense that being in nature, walking in nature, is a positive way of replenishing the microbiome. The gut and its life are fundamental to our well-being through their importance in supporting the immune system. In effect, the outside runs through us.
