Studies have found that people who are connected with the natural world around them have better mental health outcomes and are more likely to act in an environmentally friendly way. A recent study also found that the last 200 years has seen a huge drop off in environmental connectedness. This study found a lack of nature-based experiences (due to urbanisation) and a lack of passing down an appreciation for nature intergenerationally as leading causes for this reduction (Modelling Nature Connectedness Within Environmental Systems: Human-Nature Relationships from 1800 to 2020 and Beyond, 2025.) 

It is in the area that we hope Minutiae will have the largest impact, by providing an artistic experience that is set within the natural world, open to all ages, and motivates people to actively participate and find joy in connecting with nature. By setting up and presenting in parks and other outdoor spaces, we hope to catch audiences in their everyday environment, and normalise engaging in arts experiences.
