| summary |
The project explores disturbances through the lens of landscape and architecture. The disturbance is a concept used in ecology to describe changes in environmental conditions that cause changes in the ecosystem. The project recognizes disturbances as a constant state of landscape and architecture. It examines ways in which this concept can generate an architectural and landscape idea through ecological thinking and computational tools. The project explores a toxic landscape - the coal mining in the vicinity of Prishtina. It transforms it into an open seed bank and a site of ecological research that studies changes in ecological patterns in a constantly disturbed site. The resulting constructed ecology is not only a remediation site but an experimental data landscape as well, that investigates the interaction between toxic agents/hyperobjects and ecological patterns on site: considering geology, hydrogeology, hydrography, topography, climate conditions, and vegetation as interconnected and inseparable layers of the site. As such, it renders our interrelationship with non-human agents visible. The project explores new methodologies and representation for territorial design in the contemporary environment. In particular, disturbances are related to the new calligraphy of the world, a new drawing, and a new geography. |
