Marina Klimenko

My research focuses on how contemporary texts from Canada's West Coast translate properties of waters into English, creating new fluid forms of writing. Working within the environmental humanities, feminist new materialisms, and multidisciplinary water studies, I explore how literary texts create the language for articulating human relationships to waters.
