Tejiendo líneas en el borde del agua: Estrategias para re habitar y responder a la emergencia climàtica

“Belonging to a territory is the phenomenon most in need of rethinking and careful re-description; Learning new ways to inhabit the Earth is our biggest challenge.” (Latour, 2018)
The Cromarty firth is a coastal feature of the Scottish landscape, a transitional body of water.
To Look at the Cromarty Firth as a biophysical entity means understanding how land, people, and resources interrelate.
Recognizing the water edge as the place where these relations are in tension is the point of departure of this project.
This project explores strategies that enhance dwelling in the water edge to respond to the climate emergency. It starts with the exploration of social and environmental processes acting upon the landscape and its relevant scale of operation to understand which are the forces monitoring the change in this landscape. New ways of dwelling in the territory are based on the concept of meshwork borrowed by Tim Ingold from Henri Lefebvre, as a different approach to inhabitation. The history of human interaction with the wetlands gives perspective to new commons and strategies that are based on the dynamics of the landscape as a point of departure.
