Llew Watkins (UK)

Llew Watkins, a PhD researcher at the University of Sheffield, explores experience as world enactment. He works at the intersections of embodied narratology, Buddhist thought, and the philosophy of Eugene Gendlin to develop a cross-cultural understanding of the mind-world relationship. This investigation continues through his novel writing project Hinterland Shift, and accompanying sculptural installations. He is a Buddhist practitioner with over twenty years of experience in the Tibetan traditions.
He can also be found: Making arcane rituals at stone circles with the Dark Moon Collective (co-founder). Creating nurturing spaces for awakening with Black Mountain Meditation (co-founder). And practicing radical pedagogies through the Embodied Critical Thinking and Understanding Community of Practice (project lead).
