    Unrealized project proposal for AUP

    Willing to continue investigating our relationship with natural components of the environment and expanding the development of the project in progress “Untitled dualism”, it would be a matter of great interest for us to get to know the German landscape and observe how it can affect and redefine our relation with the project.

    Coming from a completely different natural and geological scene we are interested in widening up our knowledge and experience and to investigate how a different environment can affect the continuation of the project in a dialogue with the dipoles (natural-artificial, inner-outer, introvert-extravert etc.) which are set to be our point of reference.

    For the further development of our project we plan to contact Berlin’s landscape and its flora and observe the typical trees of the country’s low altitude forests, as pine, oak and beech.

    “Grafting”; a procedure done in agriculture for various reasons, eliminating needed space, repairmen, even for decorative shaping. Tissues from one plant are inserted into those of another so that the two may join together.

    We are keen in examining how two different kinds of sprouts can be grafted together. For example, branches of olive trees, the eminent Mediterranean tree, which we will travel with us to Berlin and merge them with oak or beech trees.

    How adjustable and flexible can two different kinds of the same natural material can be?

    Is the reaction going to be fruitful?

    In which way the foreign is absorbed by the local?

    Furthermore, how this action held in the public space can be carried in a private space and alter its boundaries of changeability?
