Parckfarm Festival
Brussels, May-June 2022
Brussels, May-June 2022
The festival consisted of a series of construction workshops in which a number of targeted interventions for the regeneration of ParckFarm greenhouse were prepared, designed and built. The focus is on hyper-locally sourced materials, pre-consumer and post-consumer waste . The material survey is organised through an eye that looks at the city as a mine, where all resources are already available.
Inclusive and participatory processes extend the act of building beyond its premises: a collection of lectures, open talks, community parties, radio shows, communal meals enrich the program and open the discussion to target a wide public.
