Peat on Earth is a poetic and visual collaboration between poets Matt Sowerby and Kimchi Lai, and filmmakers Studio 91 Media and Factual TV, across the UK and Malaysia. The project uses spoken word films to explore the beauty, biodiversity, and cultural importance of peatland habitats in both countries.
Supported by the British Council’s Connections Through Culture grant, the project seeks to challenge perceptions and reframe how these landscapes are understood.
