EDIBLE GARDEN
Chaumont-sur-Loire, France
2016

total park area: 210 m²
role in the project: concept
status: implemented
the project was implemented together with Anna Andreeva and the Alphabetcity bureau

The humanity of our century has already learned to gracefully implant engineering advances in nature to such an extent that sometimes it changes natural nature to hybrid. Transgenesis, vertical gardens, greenhouses remove many restrictions given by nature and turn representatives of the flora into agroculture, and the sacrament of nature turns into a game built on the increasing needs of a human whim, where rationality is combined with epicureanism. Our garden is an easy illustration of this game.

Each «greenhouse» carries its own edible «menu», consisting of different edible vegetable crops and herbs. Dense multilevel vegetation inside the greenhouses is replaced by the appearance of a real Russian steppe, a kind of natural laboratory, where paints are mixed freely and rapidly from wind blowing on a large palette.
