The Geo Quick Response project proposes to modify and question the representations of the geopark landscape, and also aims at making visitors aware of the more global problems raised by this landscape.
By having visitors to interact with the work and be part of its protocol, the project aims at involving each person in the debate and provoking a common critical thought concerning the geopark’s experience and its unique landscape.
The plastic aspect of the project raises thoughts about the interactive modes of representation as tools for connecting the landscape to all active and invisible dynamic elements (geological, temporal, human, political and economic challenges, …) which take part in its construction and that of our multiple representations.
The project makes it possible to explore a variety of plastic languages and experiment ways of exchanges between nature and unnatural things, geographical spots and virtual spaces, contextual singularities and global challenges.
In this sense, the project is a hybrid device spanning across material, invisible, and virtual landscapes.
By using the QR code as a communication, language and sign tool, the project creates multiple links between various places (institutions, exhibition sites, landscape, web, …) and various temporalities (seasons, ephemeral installations, events, permanent website, …).
