How to approach and engage with underwhelming landscapes. Methods developed in the artistic research project Land-shapes, Sooth-scapes

Research output: Contribution to journalArticleAcademicpeer-review

Abstract

Through artistic explorations of salt marshes in Scotland, England and the Netherlands, Linde Ex developed the concepts “Land-shapes” and “Sooth-scapes” as ways of observing and approaching these often considered underwhelming landscapes.
“Land-shapes” and “Sooth-scapes” informed a series of artistic methods that engage with the challenges of these important but undervalued landscapes. The methods in their turn enriched the concepts. This process attempts to bring forth valuable and caring relations with actors and processes in these landscapes.
