Landscapes are not static. On the contrary, they are constantly shaped by natural dynamics such as erosion and accumulation, or by human disturbance. Craquelures dans le réel takes place in the Bellerive parking lot, bringing new life to the soil, a precious, non-renewable resource and the nerve center of landscape dynamics. Ploughing, the premise of the garden, introduces a new form into this slumbering mineral landscape. At once an ancient imprint of the agricultural history of a once-cultivated site and a dynamic movement, it reworks an abandoned soil that has disappeared beneath the asphalt, welcoming in new seeds.
The choreography that follows accompanies the growth of this new garden: the waltz of tools sculpting the furrows in the soil and the ballet of irrigation systems gushing water set the tempo for the cycles of plant life to resume. The show is there, the vitality of a landscape that beats to the rhythm of nature’s return to the earth.
