Receding waters

How is placemaking affected by receding waters? From talking to residents of the area, receding waters are deeply unsettling and contrary to my thinking that they provide a sense of safety, at least for the time being, when compared to rising waters in the rest of the world [i.e. have you ever checked the altitude of your city to see if it will go underwater in the future?].

How does hydrofeminist phenomenology inform this being in relation?


 

Rising Bedrocks

Is growing vertically – coming out of the waters – an anti-archaeological happening or is it a pro-archaeological as in it aids archaeology? But then if were not to lose our culture, to waters for example, would we not need archaeology? 

How is memory affected by this vertical growing?

How is the rhizomatic vertical growing that happens on the island approached?

 

 

WALKING WITH THE VERTICALITY OF BJÖRKÖ

Anthropocene Time 

Rising sea water levels will equate with the rising of the Baltic bedrock in 2050. How does this equation affect our understanding of landscape? To what extent is the invisible change in rising bedrock and anthropocentric anti-landscape? How is one to think with the affectivities and the aesthetics of the Anthropocene in Björkö?
