Nicolas Baird is a paleobiologist, artist, and writer.
They make art and science that frame the world as a network of strange kin.
Their art explores mutability and adaptation through photography, poetry, and performance.
Their science looks back in time to understand how bodies, landscapes, and climate influence each other.
They unite these themes as co-director of the Institute of Queer Ecology, a continuously evolving collaborative organism that creates and commissions artworks as tools for building multispecies futures.
Nicolas lives in New York City, where they are studying for a doctorate in Earth and Environmental Sciences.
