Journey to the unknown – exploring a third space – Sat 12:45 – mid-evening*
€ 0,00
You are invited to a journey within the journey. Together we will explore and create a habitat connecting with a crack in society. Once it had a function, now it hasn’t, soon it will be reinvented.
”When a place is abandoned by human activity, plants usually considered as weeds arrive naturally. Usually removed from elsewhere, they find there a welcoming place. These plants arrive first and colonize the space because they are the most resistant to precarious surroundings. This is also why they are generally considered infesting. Yet, they make hospitable also for other plants and animals a hitherto hostile place for non-human life. Usually they are a bit thorny and take the form of brambles. But those thorns protect other plants that are too fragile to settle in a semi-deserted place. Brambles shelter the youngest shrubs from predators, allowing them to become trees. Then, trees create shade and more favourable conditions also for animal life. In the garden where everything is decided by human beings, whether for ornamental or productive purposes, these plants are just invaders. Nevertheless, they are pioneer plants, without which life on earth may even cease altogether”. The quote is taken from Commons as Third Places by Michele Bee. This afternoon we will explore such a space together. Everything can happen…
* (If you need to leave before to catch a bus: site is within walking distance, 25 minutes from Maltfabrikken).
