Post-Natural Landscapes
This project presents a visible, materially enacted practice that makes edible thousands of years of human intervention and massive transformation of this earth. We activate seeds of the past (Lost Crops) and those of the present to help narrate the story of our food through postnaturally defined landscapes.
By studying postnatural histories of selected species; referring to living things that have been intentionally altered by human beings, through domestication, selective breeding, induced mutation, and genetic engineering, we see the human intervention in seed plasticity, morphology and productivity in our environment over time.
