The Peewit’s Landscape

As we want to make the most efficient use of agricultural land, we tend to forget that we are not the only ones trying to make a living there. While monoculture and fertilisation produce greater grass yields for cattle, other species – like the peewit – suffer from it. With this colourful stage, Rebecca Oevermann wants us to take a look from the peewit’s perspective. It is a bird observatory that shows the landscape through birds’ eyes, with side vision and a different colour scope. The path leading up to the window underlines the change of view as you enter the peewit’s realm to overlook the grassland that both men and birds need to survive.
