About

SYNOPSIS
In 2001, a boy recites a prophecy and plants a seed for a new world.
In 2007, a girl follows an ice cream man through a door, changing the course of history.
In 2011, another girl meets a nymph in a park and is changed forever.

In 2025, a mysterious and highly disruptive force ruptures the boundaries between humans, plants, and animals. Under the banner of Expedisi Harapan Sembilan, three outcasts – a world-weary park ranger, a psychic, and a fungal traveller – are sent into the epicentre of this rupture, Penang Botanical Gardens, to investigate. 
What will they find and how will it change them?

Symbiocene is an ecopunk tale of love, grief, and a wild re-imagination of a world where humans, plants, and animals live together symbiotically. 

Join us in the Symbiocene universe!

Trigger warnings:
Death, partial nudity, mildly grotesque depiction of human-animal-plant hybrids that may trigger those adverse to trypophobia
