Ptarmigan 2010, Finland
Pixelache Festival 2010, Kiasma, Helsinki Market of Possibilities 2011, Finlayson area, Tampere, Finland People were invited to edit Wikipedia articles about edible, medicinal or othervise useful weeds growing in their city. Then the essential information of the plants with a link to the full wiki-article was printed in a form of botanical garden signs to be planted in the urban environment by the audience in order to create a self-emerging botanical guerrilla garden. The project was a collaboration between me, Markus Petz, Minta Metteri, Mira Heija and Hirvitalo - Center of Contemporary Art Pispala. |
