Fallowscapes
In agriculture, fallowing is understood as a process of restoring latent ecological capacity through periodic idleness.
The project FALLOWSCAPES borrows the term “fallow” as a metaphor to examine the critical juncture in cycles of devaluing and revauling built and unbuilt environments. The reflection is on the strategies of the unexploited, and explore the re-generation in all its forms: cultural, ecologcial, economic and social.
Fallowness as a condition within the production process – a state of pause – becomes a field of potential, a moment or site in which human and nonhuman actors have the opportunity to rework those relations that structure their environments.
Here new strategies emerge, countering many modes of dispossession with new organizational capacities and social richness.
