Image by Eva-Fiore Kovacovsky, 2022 It begins with a greeting. Daisies, dead-nettles, dwarf periwinkle, moss and grass. The touch is gentle. A feeling of aliveness.
Who taught them to live together as a meadow?
And what do they teach to us?
Scents, forms, and colors speak about their relations. Meadowing is about paying attention to symbiosis and to embrace its meaning. Bacteria and plants know a lot about biological evolution.
In the Schlosspark we make time for the planetary. Each participant, human, soil, cyanobacteria, water, bring in their contexts. Welcome to a collective worldmaking experience.
As part of the Nature Through Art Conference program, Meadowing is a playful approach to bring focus to open treeless habitats. Once, grasslands sustained some of the largest wildlife communities on Earth. Today, grasslands are altered worldwide and are considered the most threatened ecosystem on most continents. Abandoning, intensifying meadows or sealing the ground, means the loss of their relations and knowledges.
