The Shifting Alpine Landscape

A cartographic investigation of the Alps through the lens of extraction — Biennale di Venezia 2025.

Research website

The Shifting Alpine Landscape is a cartographic investigation that contributes to exploring the Alpine territory through the lens of extraction and challenging the idea of the Alps as a static landscape. The unfolding of different anthropic forces reveals how Alps are territories of resource exploitation. New critical lenses and representations are urgent to inform counter reflections.
