i took this sweep of photos right before they started to change that entire area, they already cut down most of the trees on the dijk/dyke and now all of it has been removed. They (Natuurmonumenten) are in charge of transforming that area into a place for outdoor recreation and also connecting the Gement to the other nature areas around Den Bosch.
I used this area for the Land Art project we were doing with Margriet. After seeing this very direct border between city and nature/farmland i came up with the idea of making people, who come through that area, aware of this contrast. By building a 2-3 meters high observation post with a focused view on the skyline of the city and on the other side the nature area. This post would be build a little bit inside the nature area and the materials would be grass, wooden planks and sand. The windows are there to narrow the viewing frame and to make people focus on what is seen inside that frame.
It is still only but a concept...
