Meta-Climax

Application Festival Jardin de mètis

Installation / Land Art

In 2050, the industry has exhausted natural resources, and living green spaces have been replaced by mass-produced artificial landscapes. Their designers draw upon images that still linger in the collective memory, reconstructing typical countryside and forest landscapes from readily consumable plant products.

The META CLIMAX© garden proposed here represents an industrial experimentation in this regard. At its center lies a rectangular prism made of PVC strips, protecting the witness forest. The reconstructed META CLIMAX© trees, which closely resemble historical birch trees, are easy to assemble, boasting perfect canopies with leaves that rustle in the wind. The second part consists of a geoforum created from recycled plant surpluses, awaiting future development. It may eventually be colonized by visitors and other pioneering species, introducing an element of chance into the META CLIMAX© concept.
