STORIES FROM WILD TREES
AA nanotourism Visiting School
27.9.–4.10.2020
How can we learn from the trees which grow spontaneously in Meidling? The tour discovers and narrates the stories of the unregistered trees which find their own way through the urban fabric of Untermeidling. In collaboration with locals - biologists, tour guides, politicians and the community - the found trees are identified and documented in an alternative narrative of the urban existence. The discourse poses a critical stance against the existing bureaucratic model of "urban greenery" and reveals the role of self-planted trees within the city as a legible symptom of a larger global issue: the climate crisis.
