Anna Kirk-Smith is an interdisciplinary fine artist working with themes of nature, ecology, science and history, with specialist areas of interest being marine biology and geology. Unbridled curiosity and intriguing narratives are the starting points for her work.

How to Be Feral invites readers into a dynamic exploration of the body’s relationship with the natural world. Drawing on Claire’s expertise as a movement artist, this book is a call to reconnect with the wilder, intuitive aspects of ourselves. Rooted in practices developed through her intimate relationship with East London’s Hackney Marshes, Claire offers embodied exercises that inspire a deeper awareness of how we move within and are moved by the landscapes we inhabit.,

Combining personal narrative, ecological insight, and practical guidance, this book bridges the boundaries between human and non-human, urban and natural. It challenges readers to rethink their environment not as something separate but as an integral part of their being. How to Be Feral is an invitation to slow down, listen, and move in harmony with the rhythms of the earth—whether in an open field or the hidden green pockets of a bustling city.

Perfect for those curious about walking, movement, and creative practices that foster ecological awareness, this book is a guide to re-wilding the body and re-imagining our place in the world.
