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.
