"Intricate"

"An aerial image taken over the floodplains in Australia, it depicts a landscape within a landscape. The alluvial fans depict trees, hills and clouds."

Winterfluten am laufenden Band

an der Elbe und ein “Blick aufs Grüne Band” entlang des Elbstroms. Hochwasser an Flüssen sind nichts Ungewöhnliches. Es hat sie immer gegeben und die Menschen haben bis vor etwa 100 Jahren respektvoll Abstand mit ihren Wohngebäuden und Ställen zum Gewässer gehalten. Wo keine erhöhten Ufer zu finden waren, wurden Warften (Wurten)geschaffen. Dann wurden kleine Siedlungen mit Ringdeichen wie in der…

Two years ago we flooded a forest and since then this place has undergone an extreme transformation that has been beautiful to witness. We hope you enjoyed the ride so far!

🔎 ABOUT THIS PROJECT

===============================

Over recent decades, large swathes of Slovakia’s wetlands have been lost. They have been drained to make way for agriculture as a result of the construction of dams for hydroelectric power, as well as for timber production. Wetlands are an integral part of the Danube floodplain landscape in Slovakia and draining them to plant trees has detrimental impacts on the environment. Wetlands store large amounts of carbon and are home to a diversity of plant and animal species that are specially adapted to the wet conditions. One of these species is the nationally endangered and endemic Pannonian root vole, which has declined drastically in Slovakia in response to disappearing wetlands. This project will turn forest back into a wetland by digging 650 meters of ditches. This will kickstart a “flood” of change and bring back a healthy functioning, sustainable and wilder ecosystem.
